What to expect

"Looking for a jet ski experience in Abu Dhabi? Discover a comfortable and stable alternative with Bayside Water Rides’ Guided Self-Drive Speedboat Tour around Yas Island.

Drive your own small, easy-to-operate boat while following our captain in a separate lead boat. The captain leads the group on a planned 90-minute route around Yas Island and Al Raha.

Cruise past some of Abu Dhabi’s best-known waterfront landmarks, including The Giant at Yas Bay Waterfront, W Abu Dhabi – Yas Island, Yas Marina Circuit, Ferrari World Abu Dhabi, Yas Links Abu Dhabi Golf Course, Yas Island Mangroves and Al Raha Canals.

The experience includes an island stop and optional automatic onboard narration in 15 languages. You may listen to the narration or switch it off and play your own music through the Bluetooth sound system.

The boats are small, stable and easy to operate, including for first-time boaters. A complete safety and driving briefing is provided before departure, and no boating licence is required.

Each booking receives its own private boat. Unrelated guests are not placed together in the same boat."
