If you’re looking for a slice of water-based adventure in Abu Dhabi, Sir Bani Yas Island is the perfect locale for some secluded thrills out on the water. Here are a few water sports you can expect to enjoy while on this island paradise.
Scuba Diving
A true underwater expedition is best enjoyed via scuba diving that takes you down into the darker depths of the oceans. The thrilling sights of submerged wrecks and up-close encounters with Queenfish, golden trevallies and silver sweetlips are what you can expect during your adventure.
Snorkelling
Offered by hotels on the island like Anantara Sir Bani Yas Island Al Yamm Villa Resort, this is the perfect way to explore the marine wonders if you’re new to ocean exploring. Keep your eyes peeled for barracuda, groupers and angelfish that glide past the beautiful reefs.
Kayaking
Paddling gently along the waters in a kayak is great for a more serene adventure of sightseeing in Abu Dhabi. You’ll discover expanses of mangrove habitats where a multitude of migratory birds move about freely.
Stand-Up Paddleboarding
Another great sport for the gentle ocean waters, stand-up paddleboarding gives you a two-for-one gain – scenic sights plus an energising cardio workout, as you work to maintain your balance while manoeuvring the board with a paddle.
