Water sports and leisure activities ÉMIRATS D'AJMAN ET D'UMM AL-QUWAÏN

As it is forbidden to explore the mangroves without a certified guide, here is an excellent company that can take you there. Several trips are possible: the daytime kayak trip lasts about 2 hours and will bring you and your guide close to birds such as flamingos, herons, ospreys and many others. The other trip is by night and it is a unique and fascinating experience to observe the night life of the mangrove inhabitants especially on full moon nights. Electric canoe tour with guide also available.

The club, located on the waterfront, offers water skiing, kayaking, paddle boarding, windsurfing, wakeboarding, and boat trips for fishing. This beach is one of the best wakeboarding spots in the country. The equipment is safe, and there are even lessons for children. A swimming pool with a children's corner and a restaurant complete the offer. It is also a certified centre that welcomes many school groups.

Perhaps the most memorable adventure you can have in UAQ, crabbing is a reason in itself to visit the emirate. At nightfall, with a bathing suit on and proper footwear, the boat will take you to the nearby mangroves where you will fish for crabs. You will be provided with all the necessary equipment to catch them, as there is no question of coming back empty-handed since once back at the Flamingo Hotel, everyone's catch will be cooked and served at the buffet dinner included in the package. Those who are not staying at the hotel can join in.

The water sports centre is located on this beautiful white sandy beach, with a beach club of the same name and a restaurant. A few wooden huts give a lot of style to this centre which welcomes water sports lovers. The beach is known for its waves during gales and wakeboarding lovers will be delighted. If the sea is calm, you can go out on a jet ski, kayak or paddle. Only 45 minutes from Dubai, this paradise beach allows you to spend a nice day at more affordable prices.
