FAQs

The Palm Jumeirah Monorail is Dubai’s first driverless train system, connecting the mainland (Gateway Station) to Atlantis Aquaventure at the tip of Palm Jumeirah. It offers a unique elevated ride with panoramic views of the Arabian Gulf and Dubai skyline.

The monorail starts at Gateway Towers Station near the entrance of Palm Jumeirah and ends at Atlantis Aquaventure Station. Along the route, it stops at Al Ittihad Park, Nakheel Mall, and The Pointe.

The entire ride from Gateway to Atlantis takes around 10–12 minutes one way, offering plenty of time to enjoy scenic views and take photos.

The monorail operates daily from 9:00 AM to 10:00 PM, with trains running every 15 minutes.

The late afternoon or sunset hours are ideal for photography, as the light beautifully illuminates the Palm’s structure and Dubai Marina’s skyline.
