Water skiing is exactly like it sounds. You will be standing upright on convex-bottomed skis and tethered to a motorboat. The boat will tow you through the bay at high speed. You will be able to feel the sea breeze on your face as you skim the glistening water of the Persian Gulf. You will be given detailed directions by your professional instructor before you set out. All you need to do as the boat picks up speed is to keep applying equal and opposite pull on the boat. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/25.075380325317383+55.12875747680664\/@25.075380325317383,55.12875747680664,12z\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color: #24a1b2 !important;\" rel=\"noopener\">Get Directions<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Inclusions<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Life Jackets<\/li>\n<li>Briefing from professional instructors about rules and regulations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>WhereWater Adventure Dubai, Jumeirah Beach Residence (JBR), DubaiTimings<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> Daily from 9 AM to 6:30 PM.<\/li>\n<li> Activity is available every 1 hour.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2> <span>11 <\/span>Catamaran Ride<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn-imgix.headout.com\/blog-content\/image\/811d9dc64f1af88f8f7b5087be1ee019-Catamaran%20Tour.jpg?fm=pjpg&amp;auto=compress&amp;w=1100&amp;h=425&amp;crop=faces&amp;fit=min\" data-sizes=\"auto\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-pagespeed-url-hash=\"1859759222\" onload=\"pagespeed.CriticalImages.checkImageForCriticality(this);\"><\/p>\n<p>There is something about majestic yachts that make every marine voyage seem grand. While in Dubai, you can hop onto a 70 feet Catamaran and witness this grandeur for yourself. The Catamaran tour takes the water route to many of Dubai\u2019s major landmarks like the Dubai Marina, JBR, Bluewaters Island, Atlantis, Burj Al Arab, Dubai Canal, Deira, Dubai Eye, Burj Khalifa, and Port Rashid and makes for a memorable experience. The FD3 motor yacht used for the tour is itself quite photogenic when coupled with the stunning views of Dubai. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/25.075380325317383+55.12875747680664\/@25.075380325317383,55.12875747680664,12z\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color: #24a1b2 !important;\" rel=\"noopener\">Get Directions<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Inclusions<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Access to the FD3 Catamaran motor yacht<\/li>\n<li>Softdrinks and water<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>WhereWater Adventure Dubai, Jumeirah Beach Residence (JBR), DubaiTimings<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> Daily from 9 AM to 10 PM.<\/li>\n<li> Activity is available every 1 hour.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2> <span>12 <\/span>Deep-Sea Fishing<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn-imgix.headout.com\/blog-content\/image\/9ddad015de6e8aac8f80e4c323a946c1-Deep%20Fishing.jpg?fm=pjpg&amp;auto=compress&amp;w=1100&amp;h=425&amp;crop=faces&amp;fit=min\" data-sizes=\"auto\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-pagespeed-url-hash=\"1859759222\" onload=\"pagespeed.CriticalImages.checkImageForCriticality(this);\"><\/p>\n<p>Dubai is not just about the high-society and ultra-modern experiences. There are some water activities that are capable of taking you back to simple days. Deep fishing is one of them. You can get away from the urban mess that we are all used to and spend leisure time on a boat fishing. The bay has several species of fish for you to catch, including Cobia, King Fish, small shark, Sultan Ibrahim, and Barracuda. Listen closely to your captain to secure a larger haul. You may also be able to spot a few exotic species of birds when you are out in the sea. You can remain out on the sea for up to 5 hours. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/25.075380325317383+55.12875747680664\/@25.075380325317383,55.12875747680664,12z\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color: #24a1b2 !important;\" rel=\"noopener\">Get Directions<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Inclusions<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Life Jackets<\/li>\n<li>Briefing from instructors on rules and regulations<\/li>\n<li>Softdrinks and water<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>WhereWater Adventure Dubai, Jumeirah Beach Residence (JBR), DubaiTimings<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Morning departure time is 6 AM or 7 AM.<\/li>\n<li> Evening departure time is 4 PM or 5 PM<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We hope this list of water sports in Dubai gets you sufficiently excited about visiting this wonderful city and its outstanding beaches.
