What water parks are there in Dubai?

Sea cruises offer a new perspective on Dubai. I went on an evening cruise through Dubai Marina on a traditional dhow boat. The city lights reflected in the water, creating a magical atmosphere. Dinner on board with local cuisine and live music made the evening unforgettable. For those seeking luxury, yacht rentals are available, allowing you to explore the coast, see the Palm Jumeirah, and Burj Al Arab from the sea. Cruises to Bluewaters Island, home to Ain Dubai, the world's largest observation wheel, are also popular. Deep-sea fishing and water sports complete the list of water-based entertainment.

When you first see the glittering skyscrapers of Dubai, it's hard to imagine that less than a century ago there were only sand dunes and fishing boats bobbing on the waves of the Persian Gulf. The history of Dubai begins at the beginning of the XVIII century, when the Bani Yas clan founded a small settlement near the Dubai Creek. This narrow bay has become a vital artery for trade and fishing. In 1833, the Al Maktoum clan peacefully seized power, and since then Dubai has been ruled by this dynasty. But the real turning point came in the middle of the 20th century with the discovery of oil. Instead of relying solely on oil revenues, wise rulers invested in infrastructure, trade and tourism, turning Dubai into a global hub in a few decades.

Despite Dubai being considered one of the most liberal cities in the region, modesty in clothing is still valued. For men, this means avoiding sleeveless shirts and short shorts in public places. Women are recommended to wear clothing that covers the shoulders and knees. In beach areas and hotels, the requirements are less strict, and swimwear and beachwear are allowed. I always carried a light long-sleeved shirt or scarf with me to cover up if necessary, especially when visiting religious or cultural sites.
