Overview

About this experience

A jet ski is the fastest way to see Dubai from the water. You ride your own jet ski, or share one with a friend, while a guide rides alongside to set the pace and point out the landmarks.

From Dubai Harbour, the route runs past the towers of Dubai Marina and Ain Dubai on Bluewaters Island to the crescent of Palm Jumeirah and Atlantis The Palm. For Burj Al Arab, you set off from a jetty a few minutes from the hotel and ride right up for photos with the sail-shaped tower behind you. Visiting the capital? We also book jet ski rides in Abu Dhabi, along the Corniche skyline.

No licence or experience is needed. Every ride starts with a safety briefing and every rider gets a life jacket. The price is per jet ski, so two people riding together pay once.
