Average Excursion you get a kayak a paddle and a buoyancy aid eventually.

Kenny_S, Apr 2025

Its basic and limited and certainly not guided. I spent half an hour in the 'safe' zone and got bored returned kayak and headed off for some breakfast. To be fair it did get me out on the water and the guys beach side were great.

Kayaking fun, communication terrible!

Helen_P, Jan 2024

Kayaking for an hour was pretty fun as you get to see the skyline from a totally different view. This is a self guided tour. Other than giving you a life jacket and putting the kayak in the water, you will not get anything else. The communication is terrible! Make sure you arrive 20-30 mins early as nobody is going to meet you at the Dukes hotel, you need to make your way to the beach and ask around to find where you are supposed to go.

Response from Host, Feb 2024

Kayaking for an hour in Dubai provided a refreshing perspective of the skyline, offering a unique and enjoyable experience. However, it's important to note that this is a self-guided tour. Apart from receiving a life jacket and assistance with launching the kayak, there is minimal support or guidance provided by the tour operator.
