BackDubai caters to every lifestyle, offering experiences from swimming with sharks and dolphins at the Atlantis to playing a few rounds at championship golf courses visited by seasoned professionals. However, some activities stand out above the rest—quite literally. For an adrenaline rush that elevates you above the city, you should explore one of these high fly Dubai experiences.
XLine Dubai Marina
At.mosphere in Burj Khalifa
The award-winning signature restaurant on the 122nd floor of the Burj Khalifa is set a staggering 442 metres high and provides a dining experience that will be hard to top. You can have a relaxed meal in the main lounge or opt for the private dining room that only seats a maximum of 16 people and offers a choice of three, five or seven-course meals. The menu is pan-European, using the freshest seasonal ingredients sourced from around the world and the view, which stretches across the breadth of Dubai, is simply breathtaking.
SkyDive Dubai
Skydiving might just be the one activity that everyone wants to try at least once and with SkyDive Dubai, you can have the chance to do so any day of the week. There are two drop zones to choose from - the Palm Drop Zone at the edge of Dubai Marina and the Desert Campus on the outskirts of the city.
Flying Cup JBR
Beachside dining gets a fresh new perspective thanks to Flying Cup, a 16-seater dining space that takes you 40 metres into the air to enjoy a quick meal with family or friends. The trip only lasts about 20 minutes, but in that time you get to take in 360-degree views of the city and the sea stretching out around you. You can make bookings for birthdays and anniversaries, and there are corporate packages available as well so you can make sure your next meeting leaves a lasting impression.
SkyHub
SkyHub is an extension of SkyDive Dubai and is focused on the sport of paramotoring which, as the name might suggest, is a thrilling combination of paragliding and motoring. As with skydiving, there are two options to choose from - you can enjoy a private flight over Dubai Marina and the Palm in a craft customized to your flying preferences, or you can head to the desert where you have the additional option of a tandem flight.
