This is one activity that is open throughout the year but not one for the weak hearted or people who suffer from vertigo! Jumping off from the 163rd floor just for thrills is not everybody’s cup of tea! You need a strong heart to do that but it’s a definite must for the thrill seekers.

Dune Racing
