Fleet Specifications Offer Choice for Every Group

Selecting the right vessel depends on group size and cruise expectations. We offer 77 suitable boats out of our total 88 vessels, ranging from 40 to 164 ft in length. Smaller motor craft host cozy family gatherings, while larger tri-deck power catamarans can comfortably accommodate up to 75 guests for larger gatherings. Checking prices for boat rentals in Dubai helps narrow down options based on your budget, whether planning a short outing or an extended trip. Each vessel in our fleet operates purely under engine power, guaranteeing smooth transit along the coastline. Cruising during the cooler winter months from November to March delivers prime weather conditions, while evening sailings remain popular year-round to enjoy illuminated city views.

Event Packages Tailored for Special Moments

Gatherings on the water offer a distinct setting for celebrating personal or professional milestones. Sunset charters create an ideal backdrop for romantic wedding proposals or intimate anniversaries, while spacious power catamarans cater to corporate networking functions, product launches, and client dinners. Birthday parties are frequently enhanced with personalized onboard touches. On request, managers arranging the best yacht rental Dubai can have a boat decorated before your arrival starting from AED 350, order a celebration cake brought on board from AED 250, or hire a professional photographer on board from AED 500 per hour to capture the occasion while sailing past the skyline.

Dining Options Ranging from Self Catering to Chef Service

Culinary choices on board can be tailored to suit any preference during your cruise. Guests are fully welcome to bring their own snacks, meals, and beverages, including alcohol, without paying any corkage fee. Alternatively, full dining services can be organized in advance through your booking manager. Dinner served on board starts from AED 250 per guest, featuring prepared menus or live grill setups cooked fresh on deck. For guests who choose a deep-sea fishing excursion, having your catch cooked on board is available for AED 150, creating a fresh meal straight from the sea to your plate.

Cruising Routes Show Off City Landmarks

Customized routes along the coast reveal the most famous sightlines of the shoreline. A short charter lasting 2 to 3 hours typically highlights the architecture of Dubai Marina, Bluewaters Island, Ain Dubai, and the JBR beachfront. Extending your trip to 4 hours allows your private boat rental Dubai to navigate around Palm Jumeirah toward the Atlantis resort and the calm lagoon near Burj Al Arab. Selecting a flexible route enables guests to tailor an itinerary that fits their timeline, whether pausing for photos off the coast or navigating toward Business Bay through the canal waterfall bridge.

How to Book a Cruise Date with a Deposit?

Securing a specific date on the charter schedule requires a formal confirmation process. Paying a 30% deposit up front locks the date for your private group, while unpaid dates remain open to other inquiries on our calendar. Guests simply send their preferred date, duration, and guest count to our manager via WhatsApp chat, where all trip details and optional add-ons are settled. Once agreed, a secure online payment link is provided for card transactions to process the down payment, and the remaining balance is settled before stepping on board your motor vessel.

Standard Inclusions Cover Essentials and Crew

Every private charter includes essential amenities to ensure comfort on the water. Standard pricing covers chilled bottled water, soft drinks, ice, and access to the vessel sound system via Bluetooth or AUX connections for your choice of music. Professional navigation and safety are maintained on every voyage, as a licensed captain and experienced crew manage all operations onboard. Charters operate under clear safety protocols, ensuring all guests enjoy a secure environment while relaxing on deck or cruising along the coast.

Hourly Pricing Structure Explained Clearly

Charter rates vary depending on the size of the vessel, season, and duration of the voyage. Hourly rates range from AED 680 to AED 18,900, covering everything from compact motor boats to expansive superyachts. All displayed rates are fully VAT-inclusive, ensuring transparent pricing without hidden fees at checkout. Off-peak hours or weekday departures often offer flexible planning opportunities. Because every charter is strictly private for your party, the total rate remains fixed regardless of how many guests join up to the vessel's maximum capacity.

Departure Points Located at Central Marinas

Smooth departures begin at centrally located marina berths along the coast. Charters launch directly from prime locations at Dubai Harbour or Dubai Marina, providing easy access to main cruising channels. Guests are recommended to arrive 15 to 30 minutes before their scheduled departure time to allow for effortless boarding without rushing. Boarding needs no ID or passport check, allowing your party to step straight onto the deck. In the event of bad weather, your trip is safely moved to another date or the payment is fully returned.

Add Water Sports and Fishing Activities

Enhancing your ocean outing with extra activities adds variety to your time anchored at sea. Guests can swim off the boat in designated coastal lagoons exclusively during daylight hours, while evening cruises focus on coastal sightseeing. Additional water sports options including jet skis, flyboards, paddle boards, towed banana rides, seabobs, and snorkelling gear can be pre-arranged with the manager. For sport fishing enthusiasts, having fishing rods, tackle, and bait ready on board is available for AED 150, allowing your group to cast lines in local waters.
