A Whale Was Spotted Today In Dubai Harbour Marina

Farah Makhlouf

We’ve seen lots of unexpected wild and aquatic animals like stingrays and snakes in the UAE over the past few years. Like our very own National Geographic, people are quick to capture snapshots of the animals and that’s how this whale was found!

Dubai Marina has seen its fair share of large aquatic animals like sharks and this time Dubai Harbour has been visited by a whale!

People have spotted and photographed a whale whilst in Dubai Harbour Marina today

@jonnydodge_ and @bluskind have DM’d Lovin Dubai with their recent viewing of a beautiful whale swimming around in the harbour

The whale looks relatively small and it swam pretty close to where the group of people were. Reminds us of the time when a whale showed up at The Dubai Mall!

Kidding! It was only a simulation but it definitely had lots of people confused!

As always, if you see a wild animal, please don’t approach it but you can take a picture, provided you are far away enough.
