The experience
You arrive at Xtreme Water Sports on Umm al Suqeim Beach, where an instructor meets you and walks through the basics of jet ski operation and safety. After choosing your jet ski model and putting on a life jacket, you get a short training session covering equipment handling. Then you're on the water heading toward the Burj Al Arab, the sail-shaped hotel rising from the coast ahead of you.
The route takes you past Dubai's waterfront with the skyline visible across the bay. You'll pull up to the Burj Al Arab for a photo stop (the moment the operator captures on camera for you to keep) before turning back to the beach. The whole ride runs 20 minutes on the water, which fits into a morning or afternoon without consuming your entire day in Dubai.
A certified instructor in English, French, Arabic or Filipino is with you throughout. You get a changing room and locker for your belongings, an open shower afterward, and bottled water. Bring your own swimwear and sunglasses. The operator provides the safety gear and the photos.
Is this one for you?The 20-minute duration fits into a half-day in Dubai without eating up the whole afternoon, so you can combine it with other activities or sightseeing. If you want a longer time on the water or a more extended tour of the coast, a different package may suit you better.
