Jet Ski Dubai: 90 Minutes Around Palm Jumeirah

Control the jet ski across Palm Jumeirah's open water

A 90-minute jet ski activity around Palm Jumeirah in Dubai where you pilot your own ski with a professional instructor guiding you through the route. Life jacket is included; children from age 8 are welcome, and guides speak English, Arabic, or Filipino. The route circles the island's coastline with views of Atlantis, The Palm.

The Experience

You pilot the jet ski yourself across the waters surrounding Palm Jumeirah, with a professional instructor on hand to guide you through the route and make sure you're comfortable the whole way. The activity runs 90 minutes from start to finish. A life jacket is provided and worn throughout; the instructor will walk you through the basics before you head out onto the water, so you don't need prior experience.

The route takes you around Palm Jumeirah's coastline, where you'll see Atlantis, The Palm up close as you ride. You're controlling the speed and direction of the ski, which is where the adrenaline comes in—you're not watching from a boat or being towed behind one. The instructor stays with you to keep the tour on track and safe, but the ride itself is yours to steer.

What’s included

• Professional instructor for the full 90 minutes.
• life jacket.
