If your idea of a perfect day includes sun-kissed lounging, good music, great food, and that effortlessly chic French Riviera energy… well, clear your calendar. Bar du Port is officially bringing its iconic lifestyle concept BDP Beach to Ras Al Khaimah, and yes — it’s about to become that spot everyone talks about.
Opening Sunday, 8 February 2026, this dreamy new beachfront escape lands on Hayat Island, Mina, and marks the seventh location in the Bar du Port portfolio. Backed by AlphaMind Group in partnership with RAK Properties, this is the brand’s second-ever beachside concept, following its Byblos, Lebanon location. Translation? They know exactly how to do beach glamour right.
Sun, Sand & Serious Riviera Vibes
BDP Beach Ras Al Khaimah is where relaxed mornings slide effortlessly into golden afternoons and buzz-worthy evenings. Think plush sun loungers, a serene pool, soft white sand, and sea views that quietly steal the show. It’s polished without being pretentious, glamorous without trying too hard — basically the coastal energy we all want in our lives.
Dining That Knows How to Party
When hunger hits (and it will), the dining space delivers. The indoor-outdoor restaurant serves up Bar du Port’s signature French classics with a global twist, available from lunch through dinner. Crafted by Brand Executive Chef Hadi Saroufim, the menu blends beloved favourites with sea-inspired newcomers, a fresh fish display, and irresistible fire-baked pizzas.
Prefer to snack poolside? The Beach & Pool Menu has you covered with shareable bites, indulgent tartines, pizzas, and laid-back dishes made for grazing between dips. Add a curated list of premium bottles and signature cocktails, and suddenly “just one drink” becomes a whole afternoon.
Why Ras Al Khaimah? Because It’s Having a Moment
Let’s be honest — RAK is glowing up. With its stunning coastlines, laid-back vibe, and an ever-growing reputation as the UAE’s next leisure hotspot, it’s only fitting that Bar Du Port chose it for its newest venture.
As Sanjay Nandi, Group CEO of ADMO Lifestyle Holding, explained:
“We’re excited to announce BDP Beach’s debut in RAK, marking another milestone in the brand’s regional expansion under AlphaMind Group. This opening reinforces our vision to bring Bar du Port’s signature offering to new destinations across the Middle East. Ras Al Khaimah’s natural beauty and growing prominence as a leisure hub make it the perfect setting for the next chapter in the Bar du Port story.”
Translation: RAK is no longer your quiet weekend escape — it’s your next it destination.
Music, Moments & Main-Character Energy
