Family Holidays in Dubai


Family Holidays Overview

Dubai is a superb family destination, with a range of activities to keep young and old occupied, day and night! With the warm enticing waters of the Arabian Gulf comes a plethora of water sports to entertain! Visit the Wild Wadi Water Park and Aqua Adventure for a vast range of thrilling rides, and for that “memory of a lifetime” take the family to Dolphin Bay to swim with these magnificent creatures. Many of the hotels offer fully equipped kids & teen’s clubs, ensuring endless fun for your family.

Child friendly beaches and a short flight time make Dubai a sure fire bet for a winter sun destination, and with water parks or camel rides in the desert to avail from, this is a perfect family destination. There are many parks on the Deira side of the creek with kiddies sections and play pools, and with food kiosks and other sports available, this makes for a perfect family day out. For the more adventurous or older teenagers, there are a vast array of watersports available at the beach such as jet-skiing, water skiing, kite-surfing and boat trips which are bound to keep them entertained.

The wildlife sanctuary which as well as being home to 3000 pink flamingos is the only place in the world where you can see white-collared kingfishers. This will provide a much relaxed day out when you are done with the action packed water parks and vibrant theme parks.

You can take the kids to watch an amazing camel race! Something totally indigenous to the Middle East. An ancient sport enjoying a recent revival and a day at the races is incomplete without having a “ride” yourself!

Believe it or not, you can also enjoy a family day out skiing in Dubai. Maybe not the most obvious place to catch some snowy thrills, but Ski Dubai offers the family the opportunity to ski, toboggan, bobsled and even build a snow man!!!!

Dubai is full of fun family days out and long lazy days on the beach. With shopping trips and exclusive spas combined with thrilling and adventurous days out, Dubai is a top family holiday hotspot, and is not to be missed.
