Water sports

From the Dubai Creek Golf and Yacht Club to ski boats at Jumeira Beach, Dubai is ready for the water enthusiast of every taste and pocketbook.

Activities provided at hotels along Jumeria Beach include jet-skiing, sailing, windsurfing, paragliding and water skiing. Diving execursions that can also be arranged.

For the rest of us, there remains swimming in the warm waters, rides along Dubai Creek in local dhows and abras, and walks along the beaches.

Dubai desert Classic Golf Club Review

Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club
This spectacular Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club is Dubai's sporting oasis: a golf and leisure heaven surrounded by the city, a hallmark of service and excellence. The magnificent clubhouse - its design mirroring the sails of the traditional Arab Dhow - became an instant landmark when it opened in 1993. The club's 18-hole, par 72 championship course rolls 6,839 undulation yards along well-groomed fairways lined with date and coconut palms, attractive water hazards and shrubbery that lend a distinctly tropical air. The Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club Golf Academy was the first of its kind in the region and boasts facilities such as video swing analysis studio, floodlit nine-hole par 3 golf course and the three practice holess which complement the driving range and putting green. Programmes run by the resident PGA professionals are designed not judt to get aspiring golfers on the course but also to provide continued support to help improve
