Relaxing experience - We did island hopping 4 hours. The guides were friendly, the islands were beautiful and calm. We enjoyed the clear blue warm waters. A lunch was included which consisted in chicken wrap, homemade plantain chips and unlimited soft drinks and water. They also gave us chairs and umbrellas for the beach, and sport equipment to play on the beach. Take note that there is no toilet on the boat nor on the islands.

A lovely experience and attentive crew on a private hire. Amazing scenery and experience. - Hussein and his colleague were excellent hosts for our four hour island hop - which is a boat journey and two islands - on a private charter which we thoroughly recommend. On arrival, park at Al Bateen marina, not the company address shown in the initial email. This was clarified in an email enquiry we sent beforehand to clarify so communication is good, and hope this information helps others. A phone number was provided and we were given a warm welcome down on the pontoons by the boats. As we sailed, they were knowledgeable and gave us time if we wanted, to take photos, and also explained some of the sights and recent history of buildings and sights. Then, on to the first island which was Dolphin Island. This is a small spit of land with clear water and a chance for paddling and walking but not swimming. You get 45 - 60 mins here but Hussein was happy to move on when we were ready. Then, on to Al Bahrani island which is much nicer and has a wooded area with gazelles, and though we did not walk into it or see them, it is an option. We were set up on the beach with chairs and shade, a speaker (though we did not play anything loud) and a football and badminton set. We were then able to swim freely in the sea among small fishes and relax by a long stretch of beach which at our time, was empty other than one other group that arrived. They played some music and ate and swam nearby. Jet skis come by frequently into the next bay. A small food box was provided for us and as many cold drinks as required. The gents were very attentive, professional and polite, and after the other group left it was more peaceful, you have to accept this is a public beach too with others visiting. There was no sense of being limited for time and they were clear this was our tour for the afternoon. Towards the late afternoon it was time to head back for the 25 minute or so journey across the sea and there was plenty to see and enjoy the spectacular views heading back to Abu Dhabi. We were very well looked after and returned on time, thank you both for a lovely family trip and memorable afternoon. Footnotes: There will be others present on either islands, from other tours or their own boats. This is not an exclusive island tour, its a public beach. The first island had signs of global human impact with some sporadic litter present buried here and there in the sand. Its a shame but by no means detracting from the intention of the stop. The second island has bins and our crew helped put some other minor litter left behind by others away, a sign of their care and attention to the experience and the environment. The islands are beautiful and interesting and we could not have asked for more from the sun, sea and sky and Sea Safari - thank you. Family of two adults and 10yo child. A chance to see some amazing islands and swim in a warm if not very salty sea to swim in. A lovely experience.

Great boat trip - Very nice crew. Quite easy to find. the harbor is not very nice so you may have doubts about whether you have arrived in the right place.. The boat we had was an older local type, not very good in small waves. Would recommend the tour operator and crew anyway.

Fantastic experience would highly recommend! - Excellent tour - would highly recommend. Lots of time to chill in the sea and the boat ride was extremely relaxing! They even set up a little picnic at the second island for us to enjoy a couple of snacks. Thank you so much for such a wonderful time!

Island Hopping Trip - We booked the island hopping tour as a family of 5 and had an enjoyable morning. The captain and his mate were both very friendly. Complimentary soft drinks and lunch were provided. The sea was crystal clear, blue, and (very) warm obviously. We saw and video’d Gazelles on the second island. Nice experience.
