A jet ski ride at Al Mamzar is Dubai’s relaxed alternative to the busy Marina. On the city’s northern edge, by the Sharjah border, the sheltered lagoon and quieter coastline give you room to build confidence and open up the throttle without the crowds. It’s ideal for first-timers, families and anyone staying in Deira or Sharjah. No experience is needed, and two people can share each jet ski.
Why Ride at Al Mamzar
Al Mamzar sits at the northern tip of Dubai, where the city meets Sharjah. The water around the lagoon is more sheltered than the open coast at the Marina, and there are far fewer boats, so it feels less rushed. Riders get views across the lagoon to the Sharjah skyline and out towards the new Dubai Islands. It’s also much easier to reach from Deira, Al Muraqqabat, Dubai Airport and Sharjah than the Marina.
Al Mamzar or Dubai Marina?
We offer jet ski rides in two parts of Dubai, and they’re very different experiences. Here’s how to choose.
Choose Al Mamzar If…
You want calmer water, a quieter ride, a first jet ski experience or a start point close to Deira, the airport or Sharjah.
Choose Dubai Marina If…
You want the famous skyline, with JBR, Ain Dubai and Atlantis The Palm, and longer routes to the Burj Al Arab. See our Jet Ski Dubai Marina ride.
What Happens Step by Step
From check-in to the end of your ride, it’s simple. Allow an extra 20 to 30 minutes on top of your ride time.
1. Check-In
Arrive at the meeting point 15 minutes early with your passport or Emirates ID, and sign the safety waiver.
2. Safety Briefing and Gear
Put on your life jacket and learn the controls, hand signals and the boundaries of the riding area.
3. Your Ride
Follow your guide out across the lagoon and along the coast, with plenty of open water to pick up speed.
4. Back to the Beach
Ride back to the beach, hand back your jet ski and dry off.
