Dubai's Palm Jumeirah is a human-made archipelago and its bird's eye view brings you pleasing vistas of islands arranged to a shape of a palm tree. These islands are known for their plethora of glitzy hotel chains, high-end restaurants, and luxury apartments. Here are some fun things to do here!
Here, you will be offered a world full of adventure and the best thing is you don't even have to stay at this resort to get here – you can actually get one to two day passes here to enjoy the massive range of attractions at this place. From record-breaking water slides that take you through near-vertical drops to cruising inside transparent tunnels that run inside a gigantic shark-filled tank, here, you'll have the most thrilling time of your life. You'll also get to enjoy a ride in the region's longest lazy river, which will take around 45-minutes to make the complete circuit.
If you prefer enjoying a little fewer hair-raising rides, you could opt to cruise around the calm waters that surround the Palm Jumeirah. Sea You is a great place to make all your non-motorised sporting dreams come true. From guided kayaking tours that involve paddling around the crescent while drinking in the views of Dubai Marina and Burj Khalifa to testing your balance on a stand-up paddleboard, you can have a wonderful time at this place. Windsurfing and Dragon Boat sailing are some other fun water activities that you can look forward to doing when you're vacationing at one of the Palm Jumeirah resorts.
Don't forget to treat yourself to one of the most lavish spa experiences in Dubai at the Talise Ottoman Spa. Located within a 14-minute driving distance via Crescent Road from Anantara The Palm Dubai Resort, here, you will be transported into an entirely different world with a host of amazing pampering experiences. Try out their Coffee Peeling treatment and relish in the luxurious sensations of being scrubbed and pampered using a rich mixture of Turkish coffee inside a 'hammam' or a traditional bathhouse. Signing up for a full-day session here will let you experience the luxuries of a rose bath, a diamond body ritual, and even a 24-karat gold mask.
At Sky Dive Dubai, you can experience the thrill of freefalling most quickly and easily via tandem skydive, where you will be safely and securely harnessed to one of the most experienced and accomplished skydiving instructors. Adrenaline enthusiasts can live their freefalling dreams at two locations including the Palm Dropzone and the Desert Dropzone. One can revel in the spectacular views of the Dubai Marina and the shimmering waters of the Arabian Gulf during a skydive at this place.
If fine art is where your heart lies, then make sure you head over to Palm Jumeirah's Pro Art Gallery. It is a fabulous gallery that hosts a splendid collection of sculptures, paintings, and photographs of a wide array of mediums and styles done by contemporary artists.
