We receive roughly 363 days of sunshine here each year, not to sound arrogant. However, the sun’s continual glare can be draining, and occasionally you just need a vacation from it. Thankfully, Abu Dhabi remains equally stylish after dark.
Cycle the track at Yas Marina Circuit
Join ADSC TrainYas sessions on Wednesdays in July and August to work up a sweat on the Yas Marina Formula 1 track. People of all ages and fitness levels are invited to get fit in a unique setting at Yas Marina Circuit, whether they wish to cycle, jog a lap, or take a leisurely walk after sunset. Helmets and bikes are available on the premises.
Go golfing after dark
Night golf probably makes most people think of hitting monster shots at Topgolf or threading the ball through miniature golf’s windmills and waterfalls. However, Abu Dhabi Golf Club offers traditional play on The National Golf Course, which is open for play from dawn till dusk thanks to a cutting-edge illumination system. The cost for two balls for non-members is Dhs455, with three different tee options available.
Feel the benefits of evening sound healing
Every Monday night at Body Tree Studio, enjoy a guided sound healing session to kick off your week. A method known as “sound healing” makes use of vibrations produced by Tibetan singing bowls and tuning forks to soothe the body and mind, unclog the subconscious, and stimulate the body’s own healing mechanisms. In addition to lowering blood pressure and discomfort, it can decrease tension.
Play for aces under floodlights at Marina Padel
Play padel on one of Marina Padel’s four outdoor courts at night and take in the lovely views of the waterfront when the lights go out. Night sessions are available for reservations until 11 p.m. for Dhs175 for an hour (off peak) to Dhs250 for an hour (peak).
Paddle under the stars
When visiting the Louvre Abu Dhabi, visitors may get an entirely new perspective on the institution by taking a two-man kayak tour throughout the night. Discover all about the architecture of the Louvre Abu Dhabi and take in the sight from a different angle. Tickets for the tours cost Dhs126 and they run Tuesday through Sunday at 6am, 8am, 3.30pm, 5pm, and 7pm.
Play for a high score at Central
Grab your tokens and head to Central in Yas Bay for an evening of air hockey, bowling, and sophisticated simulator amusement when the glow of the neon arcade calls. Delicious shakes and burgers combined with a tonne of sweet arcade package deals provide for a healthy after-hours activity.
