JBR · Dubai Marina
Swim at the Top of the World
The Address Beach Resort pool deck holds a record you cannot beat without leaving the ground. Perched on the 77th floor of the twin-tower resort at the northern tip of JBR, the open-air infinity pool sits at 293.906 metres above sea level — officially the highest outdoor infinity pool in the world according to Guinness. It is also one of the longest rooftop pools ever built, stretching 94.84 metres across the sky with 16.50 metres of width, meaning you can actually swim laps while looking straight down at the Palm Jumeirah, Ain Dubai, Bluewaters Island, Marina skyline and the Arabian Gulf all at once.
This is not a photo-op. It is an engineering feat and a genuine swimming pool, temperature-controlled, with submerged loungers along the infinity edge and a full cocktail bar on the deck. The clientele is split between hotel guests staying upstairs, Dubai residents who make it a weekend ritual, and visitors who've travelled thousands of kilometres specifically to stand at the edge and capture the shot that has defined Dubai's social-media presence for years. Address Beach Resort's own marketing calls it "Swim in the Sky" — a phrase that, for once, the building entirely earns.
The pool sits directly adjacent to ZETA Seventy Seven, the resort's Asian-fusion open-air restaurant, meaning you are never more than a few steps from a chilled rosé, a yellowtail sashimi plate, or a full multi-course lunch. Below deck on the ground floor, Address Beach Resort also operates a full private beach on JBR's sand and two additional tower pools — so families travelling with children (the 77th floor is strictly 21+) can still access the resort through a different day-pass tier.
If you are weighing this against a full night's hotel stay, the pool day pass is genuinely the better deal for most travellers: you get the record-setting view, full pool access, towels, changing rooms and the right to eat and drink on the 77th floor — all without paying the nightly room rate that comes with actually sleeping in the tower.
