Dubai is fast becoming a top tourist destination in the world. With its world-class hotels, Dubai is the perfect place to unwind. Here are some of the great exotic activities you can enjoy in Dubai during your next (or first) visit.
Experience Falconry
Mastering a magnificent and proud falcon is a big tradition in Dubai. Imagine having to do this while in the middle of picturesque dunes. If you want to try something local and wonderfully exotic, visit www.shaheenxtreme.com and book a guided lesson in falconry.
Reef-Diving and Shipwreck-Diving
In Dubai, there are many great underwater activities you can enjoy. Located a little bit offshore at shipwrecks like the Anchor Barge which succumbed to waters in 1998. This shipwreck is a good place to spot a kind of cuttlefish that changes its colors. Located almost next to the Anchor Barge is the Mariam Express which sunk in 2006.
If shipwrecks aren’t your thing, you can also go reef-diving at Fujairah emirate where turtles, moray eels, parrotfish, black-tipped sharks, and scorpionfish are easily spotted. You can also try drift diving near the Omani territory of Musandam, which is a famous spot to see the whale sharks. If you want to try any of these underwater activities, you can contact Al Boom Diving for guided tours.
Must-do: Ride a Camel through the desert
Sure, sure, riding a camel through the open desert can be such a cliché but when in Dubai, you just have to experience this activity. Think of it as some sort of immersion. It is a good way to understand the Bedouin culture, one that is older than the UAE that is today. On top of the camel’s back is whole new view of the desert that you have to experience when you visit Dubai. There is that sense of peace that you can’t ignore even if you’re trying to balance yourself all the time. You can contact Desert Safari Dubai for guided camel tours.
Sky Diving in Dubai
Go and search for Dubai images and you will see a lot of picturesque destinations with unique shapes. There’s one of the world’s most expensive luxury hotels that resembles a huge chandelier. There’s also the world’s tallest building. But the most astonishing Dubai image of all is probably the sand island that resembles the world map. Flying to Dubai, we’re pretty sure you gawked at how stunning these manmade structures look from your plane’s window. Now, imagine skydiving with these beautiful structures right below you. Luxury. Pure, unadulterated luxury. For more inquiries, you can contact Skydive Dubai.
Camp out on the Desert
Whenever we think about desert camping, several scenes from Sex and the City 2 movie come to mind. Well, sure there are camels and 4x4 rides but you really don’t camp out in the desert looking like those 4 women in the women. And yes, ladies, no plumbing where you’re out in the desert. When you find yourself wanting to experience life in the desert even for just a night or two, go to Shwaib, an area near Hatta Road. Put up your tent and enjoy cooking underneath the star-filled skies. When you’re bored, you can go sandboarding. There’s also no need to buy or bring your own camping equipment. There are companies like Arabian Adventures that offers guided camp tours.
Mountain Biking
If you think Dubai is all about sands and soft dunes, well, it’s time to change the way to view Dubai. The Hajar Mountains in Dubai offers you trail mazes to take on during your next big Dubai Adventure trip. This trail is so popular among mountain biking enthusiasts. One group called Hot Cog help maintain the wild routes by placing animal paths, narrow trails, and wadi beds. It is best to bike as a group but if you choose to go solo, no problem! A little heads up though. The trail at Hajar Mountains is not for the first timers.
Sea Kayaking
With all those sand and waters, it’s almost impossible not to enjoy sea kayaking in Dubai. The best place to go sea kayaking is at the Arabian Peninsula coast. If you’re on the west, you can also kayak near the mangroves of Um Al Quwain and Abu Dhabi where you can also catch glimpses of flamingos and turtles in their natural habitat. On the east coast, the best place to go sea kayaking is at Khor Alba. Like other outdoor adventures in Dubai, there are companies that offer guided tours and lessons. For sea kayaking trips, you can contact Absolute Adventure and book the activity.
Kitesurfing and wakeboarding
The beaches in Dubai offer great water adventure sports. In fact, Dubai has been able to capture a wide bulk of young travelers who are after not just the sights but as well as the adventure sports in an exotic country. Wakeboarding has also become a fad in Dubai. The most famous spot for wakeboarding is located near the beach stretch of Umm Suqieum. The place is also popular for kitesurfing enthusiasts. If you want to try out these activities in exotic and beautiful Dubai, you can contact Mark Andrews Kite School or Dukite.
Hiking in Dubai
While sandboarding is a popular past time in Dubai, hiking and climbing probably come next. These two sand-free activities have been getting more and more popular thanks to a small group of enthusiasts who encourage more and more people to try the sport and see Dubai in a different light. The climb to Hajar Mountains is a very challenging sport and is usually reserved for the experienced climbers. For beginners, you can take on the routes at Ras Al Khaimah. If you’re an inexperienced climber, you can contact companies like Arabia Outdoors and schedule a climbing lesson to prepare you on your first climb. The company also offers group climbs.
Off-Roading
Call your friends, rev up the 4x4 and go off-roading. While you’re at it, don’t forget to capture some still shots for those perfect adventure shots for Facebook later. Companies like Arabian Adventures offer guided wild rides through the dunes. But if you’re good at driving, you can also opt to drive the 4x4 yourself and take on the rocky roads.
