Jet Ski Tour Dubai: Burj Al Arab & Atlantis with Guide

Ride your own jet ski past Dubai's landmarks with an instructor leading the way

A 60-minute jet ski tour in Dubai where you pilot your own ski from the marina past Burj Al Arab, Atlantis, and Sheik Island, with a certified guide riding alongside. The instructor photographs the ride and hands over the images free at the end. Safety briefing, gloves, and all equipment are included. Minimum age is 16 to drive, 5 to ride as a passenger.

The experience

The tour starts at Nemo Watersports marina with a 20-minute safety briefing before you get on the water. You'll ride your own jet ski (or share one and take turns at the controls), while a certified instructor on their own ski leads the route. The guide navigates the authorized zones, so you follow their line through the water without planning the course yourself.

You'll pass Burj Al Arab, Atlantis, and Sheik Island at speed, with the instructor pausing at scenic points to photograph and film the ride. The guide stays in sight the whole time, calling out the landmarks and keeping the group together. Once back at the base, the instructor transfers all the pictures and videos to you for free: no extra charge, no separate download.

The marina provides gloves, safety gear, and a locker with a changing room and open shower. Water is included, and you get a 25% discount on food and drinks at Lumiere Cafe in the marina if you want to eat after. WiFi and charging are available at the base while you wait for check-in or after the ride ends.
