Dubai has no gay bars, as you may have assumed. It does, however, have an underground gay scene centred around private parties. That being said, there are a number of gay-friendly bars. Just be mindful that public displays of affection are ill-advised in Dubai, for both gay and straight couples.

Although not a gay bar - there aren't any, it's Dubai - Level 43 Sky Lounge is a very Westernized drinking experience. Located in Four Points by Sheraton Sheikh Zayed Road, you'll be greeted with panoramic views of Dubai. The cocktail list is excellent. Most of the drinkers and staff are international.

Located on the 44th floor of the Grosvenor Hotel, Bar 44 is very chic. It's the kind of place where you make a bit of an effort. Some very well dressed Instagram people will be drinking here. Bar 44 has 360-degree views of the Arabian Gulf, the Dubai skyline and The Palm Jumeirah. It's in an unbeatable location and it's gay-friendly.
