With its unique blend of opulence and innovation, Dubai has quickly become the jewel of the desert, beckoning travellers from all over the world to its shores as its popularity increases each year.




Renowned for its futuristic skyline, punctuated by record breaking structures like the Burj Khalifa and the Palm Jumeriah, the city is truly a testament to formidable architecture. Intertwine phenomenal scenery and turquoise ocean with the best boutiques, exhilarating activities, like dune surfing and desert safaris, and some of the best beach clubs in the world, and you can see why Dubai is high on the list when it comes to a break that has everything.

The city’s marinas are no exception to the splendour and magnificence, bordering the tranquil waters of the Persian Gulf. And what better way to take in the cosmopolitan skyline and enjoy the spoils of the ocean at the same time than from the decks of a luxury yacht?

While you can embark on a yacht charter holiday in the region for as long as you wish, many are now opting to test their sea legs with a luxurious day charter before committing to a yacht charter for a longer period of time.

If you are heading to Dubai for three nights, one week, or longer, add some extra magic and spend a day on the water.

A full-day charter presents a complete exploration of Dubai’s iconic landmarks, with ample time to relax and take in the splendour of the skyline.

For those seeking a more condensed, but equally captivating escape, a half-day charter promises an immersive experience in a shorter span, allowing you to discover essential highlights of Dubai’s breath-taking coastline, ensuring your journey is packed with impressive sights and memorable moments.

With full day and half day charters becoming the new favourite way to relax, discover why so many people are choosing to charter a yacht in Dubai.

The ultimate luxury day trip

If you’re looking to celebrate and make your trip to Dubai even more memorable, a crewed yacht charter ticks every box. Your yacht will come with its own experienced captain and crew, meaning you can sit back and relax while your crew serve drinks, set up the water toys and ensure you have a fabulous time.

Watersports and water toys

Thrill-seekers can revel in an array of watersports, from jet skiing, water skiing and paddleboarding to exhilarating wakeboarding adventures for those seeking an adrenaline rush. Explore beneath the waves with a Seabob, or take a leisurely paddle with the inflatables, with various options available for all skill levels and paces.

Beach clubs


Arrive in style and anchor at a private beach club along Dubai’s coastline. Bask in luxury, from Nikki Beach to Zero Gravity, there is a great range of beach clubs in the city. Unwind on pristine shores, sip champagne and revel in the exclusive amenities, from beachside lounges and live DJs to fitness classes or themed parties.


Snorkelling and diving


Dive into the crystal-clear waters of the Persian Gulf. Explore vibrant underwater ecosystems, encounter diverse marine life and witness the beauty of the Gulf’s thriving coral reefs. Depending on your level of experience, diving instructors can be arranged if needed.


Sunset views

Indulge in the mesmerising views of Dubai’s skyline as the sun sets over the horizon. Relax and enjoy a leisurely cruise aboard the yacht, while sipping on your favourite drink, soaking in the breathtaking transition from day to night.

Ocean dining


Delight your tastebuds with a gourmet dining affair on deck. Tailored to your preferences, there’s nothing like feasting on fresh and delicious food with your favourite people as you cruise the crystal-clear waters with sea air in your lungs.


Fishing

The Persian Gulf, along with its various bays and inlets, offers ample opportunities for fishing. Popular fishing spots include Dubai Marina, Jebel Ali and the waters around Palm Jumeirah. It’s worth being aware that some species may be subject to catch-and-release regulations to help maintain sustainable fish populations.

Events

If you’re in the region for an event such as the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, why not enjoy a day charter with your group? Whether you’re experiencing the event with friends or business partners, a yacht offers a great place to relax and enjoy each other’s company.

Celebrate in style

Yachts are the perfect setting for special occasions. Whether it’s a birthday, engagement, anniversary, or any other celebration, consider chartering a yacht for a memorable experience in a private and intimate setting, away from the crowds.
