About this activity
Water, childhood snacks, and the best skyline view in Doha. That's the Eid morning sorted..
Paddle out from MIA Park in a kayak or on a SUP with a certified instructor beside you and the Museum of Islamic Art behind you. Whether you want a relaxed cruise on the kayak or a fun challenge on the SUP, the water here is calm and the views are genuinely beautiful — Doha's skyline spread out across the horizon as you glide.
After your session, the classic childhood snacks are waiting: Pafki, Oman Chips, Salad Chips, Laban, Dandy Ice Creams, and cold juices.
Sessions run at 6:00 AM and 4:30 PM. Both slots are worth it — sunrise over the Gulf is something, and the 4:30 PM golden hour light is even better.

Details
MIA Park is one of Doha's most iconic spots — the Museum of Islamic Art on one side, the Corniche stretching along the Gulf on the other. Kayaking or paddleboarding here during Eid is a genuinely special way to see a city you think you already know.
Sessions are beginner-friendly. You're fitted with a life jacket, given a quick briefing from your certified instructor, and you're off. First-timers take the kayak (stable, easy, relaxing). Stronger swimmers often prefer the SUP — a workout and a fun challenge. Either way, the instructor stays with you throughout.
After your session, the childhood snack spread comes out: Pafki, Oman Chips, Salad Chips, Laban, Dandy Ice Creams, and cold bottled juices — the same flavours from every Eid picnic you remember.
Session duration: approximately 1 hour. Price: 100 QAR per person. Meeting point: 365 Adventures MIA Park dock.
