Water Sports
As an island archipelago, Abu Dhabi is a haven for water sports
including deep sea fishing, jet skiing, snorkeling, canoeing and
sailing. What’s more, the capital is home to Yas Waterworld Aqua
Park, the themed waterpark that is representative of the local
Emirati culture of pearl diving. Yas Waterworld spreads across more
than 15 hectares and contains over 40 rides, slides, and attractions.
X-treme Sports
The desert destination of Abu Dhabi offers thrill seekers and
adrenalin junkies some great alternatives to get their fix of
extreme sporting activities. Not every location is blessed with the
exciting and unique challenges that visitors can try in and around
Abu Dhabi. The desert environment provides the kind of place,
rarely encountered on most holidays, and the chance to try sand
boarding is an opportunity that fans of extreme sports will relish.
Yas Island
Located some 30kms from the capital, on the highway to Dubai,
Yas Island has established itself as a major new entertainment
and leisure attraction. As recently as November 2009, the island
remained unknown to the world, but all that changed with the
inaugural Formula 1™ Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, with
pictures beamed to a global TV audience in the tens of millions.
Today, Yas Island is home to Ferrari World, the World’s largest
indoor theme park, a sensational new links golf course, a stunning
marina, Yas Waterworld aqua park, an array of high-class hotels
and restaurants, and of course the Yas Marina Circuit itself.
Zayed Sports City
Built as a state-of-the-art facility for its time, Zayed Sports City
is now the premier entertainment and sporting destination in
the UAE. It features a host of different facilities that are ideal for
training, corporate events, concerts, and team sports. Activities
include bowling, gym, tennis, football, softball, rugby, foosball, table
