Adventure tips

Protect your electronicsUse a waterproof phone case or leave devices ashore—phones dropped from a jet ski are usually lost.

Sun protection is criticalApply high-SPF, reef-safe sunscreen and reapply after splashes; midday sun can burn quickly on open water.

Hydrate before you goDrink water before and after the ride—short tours still demand electrolytes in Dubai's heat.

Check the weather/cancellation policyOperators will cancel in high winds or rough seas; confirm the 24-hour cancellation window ahead of booking.
