FROM ROLLERCOASTER RIDES, RACING TRACKS AND INDOOR  SKYDIVING TO SHOPPING, DINING, GOLFING AND MUCH MORE, YOU'LL HAVE THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE IN THIS WORLD SPREAD OVER JUST 25KM

ALL YOU GOTTA DO IS SAY YAS

from walking through the intricately designed Warner Bros and imagining yourself in your favourite cartoon, to having a blast on water rides in Yas Waterworld, to speeding on the Karting track at Yas Marina Circuit, or experiencing one of the fastest rollercoasters in the world with Ferrari World... Abu Dhabi's Yas Island has no dearth of entertainment. Most of these activities require the entire weekend, with friends and family, as it would be a shame to rush through them. It's a place to create joyful memories, be it screaming yourself hoarse on rollercoaster rides, or just sitting near a pool and eating ice-cream. There's something special for everyone, the DC enthusiasts, the sports lovers, the adventurous ones who want to fly around in an indoor chamber, and just those who just want to spend a relaxing time with their loved ones and eat good food. Yas Island is a delightful place to just spend a well-planned weekend.

FOR THOSE who are keen on skydiving but are a little hesitant, well then, indoor skydiving is your best option. You'll get to fly around in an indoor flight chamber, with a width of 34 feet and a height of 104 feet.

Don't worry, there's an instructor at your side at all times and nothing will happen to you. Just make sure to remember the basic hand signals, take off all personal belongings such as rings, necklace or earrings as that might just fly off.

This was my first time ever at skydiving and it was a truly exhilarating experience, considering I am terrified of heights.

In the first attempt, we stayed rather low as the instructor allowed us to get used to just floating in the air. In the second and third, we are taken higher in the air. I had a very supportive instructor to guide and encourage me, just in case I started panicking which I did, without doubt. After I finished my turn, I just watched awestruck, the professionals flying and almost doing ballet steps in the flight chamber.
