Off-Leash Dog Beaches in the UAE: Only 3 Allow It
Just three beaches in the UAE genuinely allow dogs off-leash. Here they are, and why several guides list many more than actually exist.

How this list was built
Computed directly from data/beaches.json's dogPolicy.offLeash field — only beaches where that field is explicitly confirmed true are shown. 9 more beaches have no confirmed answer either way and are left out here rather than assumed off-leash; the remaining 29 are confirmed to require a leash. The page title cites a figure from earlier research — if the count above differs, this list (built from the current verified data) is the one to trust.
