Full description

A flyboard is a board strapped to your feet fed by a jet of water, and it lifts you out of the sea and holds you there. Thirty minutes with an instructor, off the Umm Suqeim coast with the Burj Al Arab behind you.

Nobody flies immediately. The first ten minutes are spent working out balance while the instructor controls the throttle from the boat, and most people are standing steadily by the halfway mark and diving like a dolphin by the end. That progression is the whole appeal.

No experience is needed and you do not need to be a strong swimmer — a life jacket is worn throughout and the instructor is in the water with you.

Photos and videos are taken by the instructor and sent afterwards, which matters here more than on most activities: this is genuinely hard to photograph yourself and it looks far more dramatic than it feels.

Lockers and a changing room with an open shower are provided. Contact lenses are worth swapping for glasses left onshore, or losing.

Includes

  • Flyboard ride
  • Life jacket
  • Soft helmet (optional)
  • Photos and videos taken by the instructor
  • Lockers
  • Changing room with open shower
  • Wi-Fi and charging station
  • 20% discount on food and drinks at Lumiere Cafe in the marina

Excludes

  • Hotel pickup and drop-off

It was a fantastic experience and I absolutely loved every second of it. Worth the money. And my guide Sampat was patient and he taught only what needed to be taught step by step - by the end of it - I was easily Flyboarding (okay not so easily but airtime increased quite a bit) ! Dil was also very kind and helpful ! 10/10 Experience with Nemo - also go for early morning slot for experience and evening slot for photos - take your pick

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Transport is not included here, so you make your own way to the meeting point. Taxis and Careem are cheap and everywhere, and the Dubai Metro covers most of the main sights. Allow for traffic, which is heavy in the late afternoon.
The price does not cover hotel pickup and drop-off. Everything the price does cover is listed in full on this page, so if something is not on that list you should budget for it separately.
For anything in open water, yes, and buoyancy aids are worn regardless. Say clearly at the briefing if you are a weak swimmer, because the crew will position you differently rather than turn you away.
We confirm your booking with the operator before we take it as final, and we need at least one day's notice for anything outside India. Once it is confirmed you get the meeting point, the time and a contact number for the day. If the operator cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.
