Ras al Khaimah: Private Donut Ride Water Sports with Life Jacket

Summary

Ras al khaimah towable donut ride with crew and safety gear

You’ll hit the water fast on this private donut ride in Ras al Khaimah—expect laughter, salty spray in your face, and real warmth from the local crew. Includes life jacket and all safety checks so you can just focus on holding tight (and maybe letting go a little). It’s messy fun you’ll remember for longer than you think.

What’s the experience like?

I’d never even heard of a “donut ride” before we showed up at the Ras al Khaimah beach, but as soon as I saw that giant inflatable ring bobbing behind the boat, I kind of knew what was coming. The crew—two guys from Sharjah, both quick to joke—handed us bright orange life jackets and checked all the straps. My friend tried to act cool but was already giggling. There’s something about the salty air here—sharper than Dubai somehow—and the water looked extra blue against all that sand.

When the boat took off, it wasn’t gentle. The donut skipped across little waves, and I swear I swallowed half the Gulf in spray. I couldn’t stop laughing (or yelling) every time we bounced over a bump—probably sounded like a kid at an amusement park. The driver glanced back now and then, checking if we were still holding on (we were, barely). I remember clutching those rubber handles so hard my hands felt weird after. There was this moment when everything slowed for a second—just wind in my ears and sun on my face—and then boom, another sharp turn. That feeling stuck with me more than I expected.

Afterwards, we flopped onto the beach like fish out of water, still grinning. The crew gave us a thumbs-up and joked about our “professional level” screaming skills. I tried to thank them in Arabic—totally butchered it, got a big laugh anyway. Honestly, even if you’ve done water sports before, this day trip donut ride in Ras al Khaimah is its own kind of fun. Not fancy or complicated, just pure goofy adrenaline for anyone willing to get soaked.
