Romantic Getaways Riyadh

Riyadh may be a desert city, but don’t let that fool you – there are still opportunities for fun in and on the water!

Here are some ideas:

• Wadi Hanifa: This natural valley offers scenic hikes alongside its seasonally flowing waterway. Rent a kayak or go for a swim during wetter months when the water levels are higher.

• Aquaparks: Several aquaparks dot the city, offering thrilling slides, lazy rivers, wave pools, and more. They’re perfect for beating the heat and enjoying some family fun. Look into places like Al Hokair Land or Riyadh Zoo & Aqua Park.

• Private Pools: Many hotels and resorts in Riyadh boast beautiful swimming pools. Consider booking a day pass for access to these luxurious amenities.

Tips:

• Check weather conditions: Riyadh experiences scorching summers. Plan your water activities during cooler months (October-April) or early mornings/evenings in summer.
• Dress appropriately: Wear lightweight, breathable clothing and swimwear suitable for the activity.
• Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water to avoid dehydration in the desert heat.

Enjoy your aquatic adventures in Riyadh!
