Sport |
The traditional Emirati sports of horse, camel and boat
racing have been supplemented by the myriad expats who bring their
own sports to the region. Even during the fiercest heat of summer
you'll see people playing golf it partaking in a social game
of cricket in an empty car park. Just about any Sport you can think
of has a small group of dedicated enthusiasts finding a way to
indulge in their favourite activity despite the heat and relative
lack of facilities.
Clearly the best time to play or watch sport in Dubai is during the
winter months when all of Dubai's sport-lovers make the most of the
marvellous weather. Tennis and golf are extremely popular as are all
brands of football, but water sports are more suited
as a year-round activity. Scuba diving, sailing and windsurfing are
all popular and the new water sport on the block, kite surfing, is
growing quickly, gaining new aficionados.
