A Ride on the Monorail Train in the Palm, Dubai

Atlantis Aquaventure monorail train station next to the Atlantis shopping mall.

One of the best things to do in the Palm is to take the monorail train. 

The Palm Monorail train runs along the trunk of the palm between the Gateway and Atlantis Aquaventure stations. There are two more stations along the way. These have already been completed but are still closed.


The Palm Monorail train does not connect to the Dubai metro system. However, there are plans to connect it at the Dubai Internet City (TECOM) station in Sheikh Zayed Road. The Palm Monorail offers a great vintage point to see the Palm Jumeirah.
