In Abu Dhabi, consuming alcohol in public and outside of hotels is strictly prohibited. So do not carry alcoholic beverages such as beer cans with you to the beaches and public parks. Do keep in mind, showing public displays of attention and engaging in wild, loud, and raucous behaviour is offensive. Visiting any of the above rules, can result in hefty fines, or worse, offenders might run the risk of deportation. Another rule to respect is to not take pictures of others without permission, as especially women and families might be sensitive towards the issue and result in fines.
