What is sandboarding (and how it compares)

Unlike sand sledding or sand-skiing, sandboarding uses a single waxed board and a standing stance. Because the sand is forgiving, most beginners pick up balance and braking in minutes; meanwhile, those with skate/snow experience progress to longer lines quickly. Speeds stay comfortable and controllable thanks to board wax and gentle edge control.

Where we ride (routes & scenery)

  • Lahbab / Red Dunes: Tall, soft crests and consistent gradients—ideal for repeat laps and dramatic silhouettes.
  • Al Qudra: Closer to the city with mellower lines—great for families and first-timers.
    We match dune height and slope angle to your confidence level so the session feels fun, not intimidating.

Best time to go

  • Morning: Cooler temps, quieter dunes—especially good during summer.
  • Sunset: Golden-hour light for portraits and reels; consequently the most requested slot.
  • Season: October–April is peak comfort; however, summer mornings also work well if you start early.
