Make it a weekend getaway and take advantage of Hatta's action-packed calendar of activities for an unforgettable experience for the whole family

United Arab Emirates, Dubai, 31 October 2024: It's nearly time to escape the city bustle for an unforgettable day of outdoor fun at the second Dubai Stand Up Paddle, presented by RTA as part of Dubai Fitness Challenge (DFC).

For those lucky enough to have secured one of these coveted spots, here's everything you need to know about this unique event at Hatta Dam – and even more reasons to extend your stay and experience an unforgettable weekend of fitness, wellness, and fun.

On Saturday 2 November, get set for a full day of outdoor adventure; start with an energising SUP training session designed for adults at 10:15 AM and 11:30 AM, where certified coaches will guide you in building core strength and mastering paddle boarding techniques. If you're bringing the kids along, don't miss the dedicated sessions for younger participants at 12:45 PM and 2 PM, where kids (aged six years old and over) and teens can get involved and receive certificates of achievement, making it a memorable experience for the whole family. Feeling competitive? Join the adult-only challenge at 3:15 PM or gather the family for a friendly challenge at 4:15 PM. As the day draws to a close, enjoy a serene yoga session on your paddleboard at 4:15 PM or 5 PM, set against the breathtaking backdrop of the majestic Hajjar mountains. This year, you can also enjoy free kayaking throughout the day! Make sure to secure your spot at the registration counter upon arrival, as slots are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Remember, you need to be 17 or older for a single kayak, while for doubles, under 17s are welcome but must be accompanied by an adult.

No need to stress about equipment – all necessary equipment, including high-quality SUP boards, life jackets, and kayaks for the new kayaking sessions, will be provided at no extra cost. For a comfortable day out on the water, wear swimwear and don't forget sun protection. It's also a good idea to pack a change of clothes. Getting to Hatta is easy thanks to complimentary shuttle buses departing from Dubai World Trade Centre between 7 AM and 7:30 AM, with returns between 2 PM and 6 PM. If you're driving, ample parking is available, and free shuttles will take you from the parking area to the event location.
