No.1 for fishing in Dubai — can't recommend highly enough. We came last year and couldn't wait to return; this year the fishing was even better.

Overview

Head out into the Arabian Gulf on a private sport-fishing boat with a captain and mate who know the local marks. The crew switches between trolling and bottom fishing for kingfish, queenfish, barracuda and, in season, tuna and sailfish.

All rods, tackle and bait are provided, so beginners and families are welcome. Pick a 4, 6 or 8-hour trip, keep your catch, and the crew can clean and bag it for the trip home.
