For Adventure Seekers, a Guide to Dubai

December 09, 2022

Dubai offers a variety of thrilling activities that will get your heart pumping, from the high-rises to the deep blue waters.

Zipline Dubai

Urban ziplining

A variety of watersports can be done in the warm waters of Arabian Gulf. Flyboarding is one of the more adrenaline-fueled activities available in Dubai, along with traditional pursuits like windsurfing and scuba diving. Flyboards are basically a water-powered jetpack that is strapped to your feet. They allow you to soar high into the air and, with some practice, perform amazing acrobatics. Hydro Water Sports is the best place to book your flyboarding session. It’s located next to Jumeirah Beach Residences’ Ritz-Carlton Dubai hotel (JBR).

Jet-skiing can be a great way to enjoy high-pressure water adventures closer to shore. It is easy and extremely fun. There are many places to rent one in Dubai Marina or at the city’s top seafront hotels.

Wakeboarding is a great way to challenge yourself. It offers high speeds, some learning curves, and some of the most thrilling thrills. Although it sounds simple, once you are able to stay upright and steer a board behind a boat, you will be able to do fancy tricks. Parasailing involves being pulled behind a boat by a sail-like parachute. Parasailing is where physics takes care of the rest. You are lifted into the air by a large parachute-like sail to enjoy stunning views of Dubai’s coastline. Sky & Sea Adventures can book parasailing and wakeboarding sessions.
