Solo Skipper

The Solo Skipper is our self-drive boat, and it is the lowest-priced boat in our fleet. There is no captain on board: you take the wheel and explore the coast at your own pace, with up to 4 people in the boat. You do not need a boating licence for it.

Before you leave, our team gives you a full safety briefing and a simple training session of about 10 minutes. The boat is made for beginners – easy to steer, stable and smooth – so even if you have never driven a boat before, you will feel confident after a few minutes. It reaches speeds of up to 30 km/h and takes a total load of 400 kg.

A sunshade canopy keeps the sun off, and there is safety equipment for every passenger. Cruise along the coastline, enjoy the skyline from the water and stop for photos whenever you like – it is your boat for the hours you book.

Good for

• Couples who want a private trip together
• Two to four friends looking for a fun hour or two on the water
• Small families who prefer to explore at their own pace

Included

• The boat for your group – up to 4 people
• Safety briefing and a short training session
• Safety equipment for all passengers
• Soft drinks, water and speakers

Any other requirements for drivers – we explain them on WhatsApp before you book. Prefer someone else to drive? Look at the Wave Rider, a speed boat for 8 with a captain.

The price is AED 300 per hour for the whole boat, not per person, with a 2-hour minimum – so a 2-hour trip costs AED 600, or 4 payments of AED 150 with Tabby. Book on WhatsApp and we share the meeting point in Abu Dhabi after booking. Every guest needs an original passport or Emirates ID.
