Things to do with Teenagers in Dubai

Ski Dubai - Ski in the Middle of the Desert

The centre has 5 ski slopes for all levels, the longest of which is 400 metres. If skiing isn’t for you, Snowboarding and Tobogganing are also options, and if you need a breather and a hot chocolate, there’s a wintery-themed café.

Wild Wadi Waterpark - Aquaventure for all ages

Perhaps the most aptly named ride is Tantrum Alley, a network of waterslides and tornadoes that can be enjoyed by a group of up to 4.
