The port itself is pretty amazing. It’s the largest man-made harbor in the world. Deep, wide channel, easy to get in and out of. The volume of traffic is huge. The Navy has regular berths with liberty facilities right there. Nice to have if the threatcon won’t let you leave the port area like the first time I was there. If you can leave, Dubai city is just up the road. Easily the most cosmopolitan city in the Gulf. I’d take Jebel Ali over Bahrain any day.
