KIDS AND TEENS

A protected sanctuary for free-roaming animals, the Arabian Wildlife Park is sure to delight the whole family. Hop in an open jeep to spy giraffes, ostriches and cheetahs. 

Small children especially will enjoy the nursery where our conservation and breeding efforts are centred. Get up close with baby gazelles and Arabian oryxes. 

A treasured pastime of Arabia, falconry has been practised for centuries. Observe the majestic birds on the hunt, then meet them afterwards and pet them. 

Whether out on the trail or led by an experienced guide, on horseback is a marvellous way to see the island. Visit the stables where our beautiful Arabian horses live to pick out your ride. 

Another ancient sport of the desert, with experienced tutors on hand to show you. Targets will be moved further and further away as you improve your aim. 

An easy trail around the lagoon. Through the wildlife park and up rugged mountains. There’s a fun biking experience for all on our island, with equipment, including chariots for toddlers, provided. 

For thrills and splashes, hop on a banana boat or tube as a family, and hold on for the ride of your life. Recommended for children aged 6 and above. 

The east coast of the island is ideal for kayaking, with placid mangroves to explore. You can also head out to open sea following the flight of flamingos. 

Paddleboarding is easy for the little ones to get excited and have fun in the water. It will improve their balance and strength, build confidence, and connect them with nature at a young age.
