Instead of mountains, <strong>you'll descend the high golden dunes.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Contrary to popular belief, sandboarding is not inherently dangerous.<\/p>\n<p>You can reach some pretty impressive speeds as you hurtle down the dunes, which can result in a fall. However, the nature of the sand means it won't hurt you too badly.<\/p>\n<p>If you're too scared to go down the dune standing on the board, you can sit down and <strong>use your sandboard as a sled<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2><a name=\"_Toc117054985\"><\/a><strong>Where to go sandboarding in Dubai?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Of course, to go sandboarding in Dubai, you'll need to get to the desert. The drive into the desert is fairly short, and there are a number of different destinations. In general, <strong>the journey takes between 45 minutes and an hour.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tours departing from Dubai will almost always include pick-up and drop-off, as well as all the equipment you'll need to start hitting the dunes as soon as you arrive.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-659\" src=\"https:\/\/dubaifacile.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/sandboard-dubai.jpg\" alt=\"sandboard dubai\" width=\"1024\" height=\"637\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dubaifacile.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/sandboard-dubai.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/dubaifacile.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/sandboard-dubai-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dubaifacile.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/sandboard-dubai-768x478.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><a name=\"_Toc117054986\"><\/a><strong>How much does a sandboarding session in Dubai cost?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>To be honest, it can be a bit pricey. This is partly due to the fact that a sandboarding experience is usually integrated into a longer, \"<a href=\"https:\/\/dubaifacile.fr\/en\/desert-tour-dubai\/\">desert safari<\/a>\". It can be difficult to find <a href=\"https:\/\/dubaifacile.fr\/en\/circuit-dubai\/\">tours only for sandboarding in Dubai<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>However, it's pretty cool because you can do more than one thing on your desert trip.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-button-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiqets.com\/fr\/activites-attractions-dubai-c60005\/billets-pour-safari-matinal-dans-le-desert-avec-balade-en-chameau-et-sandboarding-p975032\/?partner=dubaifacile\" class=\"su-button su-button-style-default\" style=\"color:#FFFFFF;background-color:#6A5ACD;border-color:#5548a4;border-radius:9px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"color:#FFFFFF;padding:8px 24px;font-size:18px;line-height:27px;border-color:#978cdc;border-radius:9px;text-shadow:none\"><i class=\"sui sui-long-arrow-right\" style=\"font-size:18px;color:#FFFFFF\"><\/i> Click here to find out more about your Dubai desert tour<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<h2><a name=\"_Toc117054987\"><\/a><strong>Is sandboarding in Dubai worth it?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>To try sandboarding in Dubai, you'll most likely need to book a full tour that includes the sport as an additional experience.<\/p>\n<p>Sandboard is <strong>a fun activity to enjoy with family and friends<\/strong>. What's more, there are plenty of other desert activities available when you want to enjoy this sport. The experience becomes unforgettable if you choose to spend the night in a desert camp. This kind of visit makes for a real adventure.<\/p>\n<p>There's no denying that this is a very touristy activity, a bit like a dhow dinner cruise in <a href=\"https:\/\/dubaifacile.fr\/en\/dubai-marina\/\">Dubai Marina<\/a>but it's still very pleasant.<\/p>\n<h2><a name=\"_Toc117054988\"><\/a><strong>What to wear when sandboarding in Dubai<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Sandboarding in Dubai doesn't require any special clothing. You should opt for <strong>loose-fitting clothing, ideally breathable and comfortable enough to move freely<\/strong>. You shouldn't wear anything that restricts your movements too much.<\/p>\n<p>You'll also be in the desert, so a shawl or scarf to cover your head from the heat, as well as your mouth when sandboarding, would be a good idea.<\/p>\n<p>Some agencies provide you with a scarf so that you can continue your visit to the Dubai desert, but <strong>I suggest you bring your own just in case.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As for the color of your clothes, I'd avoid black or dark colors. These only absorb the sun's heat. Opt for light colors or white. Light-colored clothing <strong>are not reserved for your stay in the desert. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In fact, I'd also advise you to wear as many light colors as possible in town, so as not to suffer from the heat. What's more, loose-fitting clothing will prevent you from sweating too much. Last but not least, sunglasses are a must! Thanks to sunglasses, you won't be dazzled by the midday sun, and you'll be able to keep your eyes on the sun. <strong>enjoy an afternoon of sandboarding in the Dubai desert<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>A sandboarding trip in Dubai's desert is almost a must when visiting the city. There are plenty of agencies to take you on a tour of this vast expanse of sand, and you'll be spoilt for choice when you get there. For example, you can <strong>spend unforgettable vacations in and around the city.<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Faire du sandboard \u00e0 Duba\u00ef est presque un sport national dans le d\u00e9sert.
