It was a quiet and relaxing paddle. Started off hot (it was June afterall), but it cooled off and the sunset was amazing. Prince was a pleasant guide and just let us go our own pace. We didn't get to go in the mangrove channels, but I knew it we were going during a medium tide (they have a chart on their website). It was still a nice experience (and probably less buggy out on the open water.

This destination is one of our top adventures for the school trips. It was very well organised; the students had a very educational enjoyable time. We did as well as teachers.
Highly recommended as an exceptional experience.
Thank you very much Aquasports. For more trips to come next year Insha Allah.

The guide, Mr Google, was enthusiastic and managed all abilities well. Although it was a low tide the day we attended. Mr Google made all efforts to extend our time so we could catch a higher tide and experience the mangroves. Paddling through the mangroves in the dark was one of the most amazing experiences and a highlight of our trip to Qatar, a welcome break from the city too. Make sure you check the tides before booking though as this really has a major effect on your experience and I don’t think is highlighted enough in the advertising.

This was a great experience. it worth going there. The trip was as it was explained. The staff was very cooperative and very well knowledgeable. They are very supportive. Those who have not done Kayaking, this is the best place to start. and especially family. Even the kids can enjoy. My 3 year old child was able to enjoy this. So don't miss the opportunity while you are in Qatar.

This is our 5th expedition with Aquasports and it gets better each time! Seamless, stress free booking via the portal and great communication on revised timings to suit the tide and wind. We were a group of ladies and thoroughly enjoyed our time.
Google (our guide for the evening) was brilliant. He was eloquent and detailed in safety briefing, explanations of the area/towns/mangroves and helped spot wildlife. He was patient with us (Lol) and kept us laughing.
Aquasports is THE only mangrove kayaking experience company we'll ever book with. Till the next trip, hopefully in 3 weeks!
And thanks for helping the mangrove by picking up plastic along the way.

Three friends and I booked the "Ramadan Special" kayaking trip. On arrival, we were given the equipment and taken to the water's edge. We then kayaked through the beautiful mangroves and were given interesting information about the local area and an opportunity to take photos on the sand bank. We then kayaked to the coast of Purple Island and were given another opportunity for photos and information about the habitat. We then had another paddle where we saw the start of the sunset and had time for more photos. Our tour guide, Goggle, was very helpful and informative, as well as a great photographer! After, we were given time to freshen up and then ate a tasty iftar meal by the campfire. A great way to spend a Friday and it was very smooth and well organised.

I enjoyed a kayaking trip to Purple Island, and it was an absolute dream. The camp’s ambiance immediately wraps you in peace, making it the ideal escape. The Aquasport staff are exceptionally attentive and friendly, enhancing the experience with their hospitality.
Kayaking among the mangroves, with the backdrop of birdsong, clear waters, and stunning scenery, was a highlight.
Post-trip, I felt a deep sense of relaxation and rejuvenation. Purple Island is a must-visit for anyone in Qatar or those planning a visit.
Highly recommended!
