I personally have a love-hate relationship with this sport (more hate than love tbh), but if you’re wondering where to go kayaking, we’ve rounded up seven locations that offer this service with the best views (for the purpose of aesthetics). Whether you want to paddle through mountains in Hatta, an iconic museum or paddle past some spectacular building in Dubai Marina, we’ve got you!

1. Al Zorah Mangroves

This rich wetland has one of the most prize natural mangroves in the region. If you love hearing the sound of birds chirping, this location is perfect as there are around 58 different species of birds inhabiting the ecosystem among trees. The best part is that explorers have the opportunity to kayak at night,

2. Louvre Abu Dhabi

Why walk in the museum when you can kayak right? This is definitely a unique way to tour around the spectacular art museum. (Advair diskus) They offer this service on weekends and several night during the full moon.

3. Ras Al Khaimah Mangroves

What’s a better was to enjoy the scenery and beauty of RAK than to paddle along its mangrove. Explore the three hour kayaking tour to enjoy the city and its views. You might even see some baby fishes in the seam.
