Which Yachts Make Up Our Fleet Selection?
Private motor vessels provide excellent versatility for every gathering on the water. When exploring our fleet, you will find 77 suitable boats out of 88 vessels total, spanning lengths from 40-164 ft. While some search for charter sailing yachts, we exclusively operate high-performance motor yachts and power catamarans equipped with sun decks and spacious indoor lounges. Groups of a few friends up to parties of 75 guests can easily be hosted across these decks. Those planning mega-gatherings might instead consider a 100-guest yacht rental elsewhere, but our motor fleet ensures complete comfort, premium sound systems, and panoramic sightseeing spaces.
Exciting Water Sports and Deck Entertainment
Active recreation brings tremendous fun to open-water charter trips throughout the year. We arrange an array of motorized and towable water sports on request, including high-speed jet skis, flyboards, Seabobs, stand-up paddleboards, and inflatable banana boats for your group. Snorkelling gear can also be supplied for relaxing swimming stops near calm coastal coves. Onboard entertainment systems, visual projectors, and premium sound setups are ready to keep your guests thoroughly engaged throughout the entire voyage along the coast.
Professional Captain and Crew Handle Every Detail
Skilled maritime professionals ensure a safe and relaxing journey for all guests on the water. Every charter comes fully crewed with a qualified captain and attentive deckhands who manage safe navigation, anchoring, and smooth docking procedures. The dedicated team assists with hospitality across all decks, serving your beverages, handling fresh meals, and maintaining pristine standards throughout the trip. Our vessels strictly uphold maritime safety and vessel insurance protocols to provide complete peace of mind while cruising.
Custom Catering and Dining Packages Served on Deck
Gourmet refreshments elevate every private gathering on the water. Full dinner served on board starts from AED 250 per guest, featuring tailored multi-course dishes and fresh barbecue selections prepared by culinary staff. If you enjoy fishing, we provide rods, tackle and bait ready on board for AED 150, and your catch cooked on board for AED 150. Guests are also welcome to bring their own food, soft drinks, or alcohol without paying corkage fees or extra service charges.
Host Your Special Event on the Water
Special milestones deserve a memorable setting against the city skyline. You can reserve any motor yacht for birthdays, romantic proposals, anniversaries, or corporate networking sessions. Turnkey setups arranged through our team make staging effortless: a yacht decorated before you arrive is available from AED 350, candles and flowers set up on deck start from AED 400, and a celebration cake brought on board begins from AED 250. For complete memories, a professional photographer on board can be added from AED 500 per hour.
Where Can Your Cruise Route Take You?
Scenic water routes showcase the most striking architectural highlights of the entire region. Setting out from Dubai Marina or Dubai Harbour, your motor yacht glides smoothly past JBR, Bluewaters Island, and the outer crescent of Palm Jumeirah. Longer charter paths allow you to cruise along the shoreline toward Burj Al Arab and the coastal canals, offering brilliant photo opportunities of towering skyscrapers, iconic downtown skyline silhouettes, and illuminated waterfront bridges during evening departures.
Can You Choose Your Own Charter Duration?
Flexible schedules allow you to tailor your voyage perfectly across our selection of vessels. You can reserve a brief two-hour cruise to view coastal architecture or arrange a longer four-hour excursion to anchor for a swim near Palm Jumeirah. Every reservation grants private access to the entire yacht for your personal group alone, ensuring complete seclusion on the water. Extended day trips give ample time to enjoy onboard music, open-air sunbathing, and relaxed dining while passing the city's coastal landmarks under the Arabian sun.
How Does the Payment and Booking Process Work?
Securing your preferred date is quick and handled entirely through our chat channel. Simply message us on WhatsApp with your date, desired duration, and guest count. Our team responds within 15 minutes between 9:00 and 23:00 GST to confirm vessel availability. Paying 30% up front locks the date via a secure online card payment link, as unpaid dates are not held. If severe weather prevents sailing, your trip is rescheduled or the payment returned.
Transparent Hourly Pricing for Every Vessel Size
Transparent rates make planning your private voyage straightforward. Private yacht charter prices start from AED 680 up to AED 18,900 per hour, fully covering the vessel, crew service, and mandatory VAT with zero hidden taxes. Whether you desire a compact 40 ft motor cruiser for an intimate sunset gathering or a 164 ft multi-deck craft for larger parties, every cost is clearly outlined before you confirm. We provide custom quotes based directly on your chosen duration and vessel size, ensuring complete budget clarity for your trip.
