Jet Car Rental in Dubai

A jet car is a small boat that looks like a sports car and that you drive yourself on the water. At Gold Water Yachts you can choose between a Rolls-Royce jet car, a Lamborghini-style jet car and a pink jet car, in rides of 20, 30 or 60 minutes from Dubai Harbour. It is a short, lively activity, and it fits well on its own or as an add-on to a yacht charter.

Everything you need to know

How a ride works

You choose a date, a time and a ride length of 20, 30 or 60 minutes. Before you go out, the team gives you a safety briefing and life jackets for everyone. On the water you drive the car yourself along the Dubai coastline. Our team confirms the other details of the ride when you book.

Which model should you choose?

All three give the same kind of experience, so budget and group size usually decide. If you are unsure, our guide jet car vs jet ski in Dubai explains the difference with a jet ski.

Rules, age and licence

Our team confirms the minimum driver age when you book. As general market practice in Dubai (not specific to Gold Water Yachts), guided jet car rides do not require a driving licence, a safety briefing is given first, life jackets are worn by everyone and the minimum driver age is typically between 16 and 18 depending on the operator. Children usually ride as passengers with an adult. Jet cars are not suitable during pregnancy or for people with serious back, neck or heart conditions, and you should bring valid ID. Read the details in do you need a licence to drive a jet car in Dubai.

Combine a jet car with a yacht

A jet car ride is short, so many groups add it to a yacht trip: the yacht for the long, relaxed part of the day, the jet car for a few fast minutes on the water. You can add it as an extra on the booking page. See how it works and what it costs in yacht and jet ski combo in Dubai.

Best season and weather

Dubai's peak yachting season runs from roughly October or November to April, when daily highs sit between 24 and 34 °C. In summer, highs reach 38 to 42 °C, so morning, sunset and night trips are the comfortable choices, and the sea can reach about 30 °C. Strong north-westerly "shamal" winds can make the sea rough, and trips are rescheduled when the Coast Guard advises.

Deposit, balance and cancellations

Your booking is confirmed once the agreed deposit is received, and the balance is paid before departure. Extra hours and extra services are charged. There is no refund for a no-show or a late arrival that causes a missed departure. If extreme weather or a Dubai Coast Guard instruction stops the trip, it is postponed or rescheduled; for a mechanical failure you get a full refund or a new date. Our team explains the cancellation notice period when you book, and the captain has the final say on safety. The full rules are in our terms and conditions.

How to book
