Get right up close in this serene nature habitat.

We have a very enjoyable time at Jubail Mangrove where we had a kayak tour with Jordan our guide. He was very knowledgeable and kept everyone safe .

Operator response

Thank you so much for your lovely review! We're delighted to hear you had such an enjoyable time kayaking through the Jubail Mangrove with us. It's wonderful to know that our guide kept everyone safe while sharing his knowledge about this beautiful and serene natural habitat. The mangroves really are a special place, and experiencing them up close by kayak is such a peaceful way to connect with nature. We truly appreciate you choosing us for this unique Abu Dhabi experience. If you ever return to the area, we'd love to welcome you back for a desert safari to experience a completely different side of the emirate's natural beauty.

Friendly staff, nice experience

A very friendly team provided best-in-class service. Unfortunately, the Eastern Mangroves are closed, so kayaking is done in Reem Island Central Park. This area also has mangroves but is surrounded by skyscrapers. It is a very different experience, but overall, it was a nice experience nonetheless.

Beautiful kayaking tour

5 ⭐️ Dennis our guide was very informative telling us information about the mangrove trees & environment. He was interactive throughout the tour & made myself & husband very comfortable. The area is very clean & tidy, I think it was reasonable priced. Very beautiful scenery in the middle of the city

Mangroves

We booked it though emerites travel , we got picke up at 2pm , the tour stared at 3 we hung around for 35 mins , the guide did not tell us anything , we had to ask about everything, he took some photos ! The mangroves were beautiful , but from the traders hotel it will take 20 mins to get there and then you could pay yourself for what way around you wanted to travel , We were then served a banana and and apple on a tray and that was it , It was over £75 per person , absolute rip off , emerites tours should be ashamed of the price they charged ! I have complained and waiting to hear back from them

Very nice trip

Very nice tour, the pickup and organization on site worked flawlessly. All very nice. It is recommended to start at 8 am because it gets too warm afterwards.

Sunset Kayaking Trip

Amazing trip kayaking in the mangroves of Abu Dhabi. We had a group of 3 and got a private tour because no one else signed up. The location is very easy to find, the equipment is well maintained and very safe. The operators of the tour were very professional, helped us get comfortable in the kayak and ensured we were safe during the entire trip. The trip was really peaceful and watching the sun go down over the mangroves was very beautiful. Getting away from the hustle and bustle of the city really helped the day and the guides made sure it was good. Our guide assessed our abilities and offered us an option of 2 different paths. If you go the long path (the one we chose) you will be paddling a lot so be prepared. It was awesome. We went during low tide so some of the kayaking paths were closed off because there was no water, so i would recommend taking a tour during high tide if possible and your schedule will allow... Water was provided during the trip and a refreshing fruit salad after the tour. Our tour ended in the dark which was very nice and peaceful. The sounds of the mangroves were refreshing and beautiful.
