Why rates differ

  1. Length first

    The hourly rate grows with length and build year. Small boats from AED 792; the largest yachts in the fleet go up to AED 2400 per hour.

  2. Timing

    The rate is set by the yacht's length and age, the number of hours and the add-ons you choose; the quote in WhatsApp already includes VAT.

  3. Hours booked

    Book 2 hours at least. Each extra hour costs less than the first two, and a full day gets a separate quote.

  4. Extras on top

    Extras are priced separately: catering per person, DJ and decoration per charter, photographer per hour.

Which Vessel Sizes Determine Our Hourly Rates?

Understanding how vessel dimensions influence private charter expenses helps plan your ideal coastal outing. Our fleet presents a clear range of choices, featuring 77 suitable boats among our 88 total vessels to accommodate any group size. Smaller options begin around 40 ft, while mid-sized motor craft span from 45 to 65 ft. Larger vessels and expansive superyachts extend up to 164 ft for massive celebrations. Selecting a mid-sized motor yacht in Dubai delivers an ideal balance of deck space, comfortable indoor lounges, and smooth handling along the shore. For smaller groups searching for great value, booking affordable yacht rentals allows you to enjoy private cruising without unnecessary space. Higher capacity vessels scale up in cost based on their total volume and overall amenities. Whatever size you select, the total rate shown is fully VAT-inclusive, ensuring absolute clarity with no hidden taxes added later. Our fleet consists entirely of modern motor yachts and power catamarans, providing stability and speed without reliance on sail power or wind conditions. Operating with licensed skippers, our private charters differ from self-drive bareboat rentals, giving guests complete peace of mind to relax on deck while a professional crew navigates the waters. Choosing the right dimensions ensures everyone stays comfortable throughout the entire voyage.

How Can You Book a Yacht Charter?

Reserving your preferred private vessel is a direct and simple process handled through our chat support. When planning your event, reviewing yacht rental deals gives you an overview of available fleet options for your preferred schedule. Guests begin by sending their desired date, cruising hours, and total count of guests directly to our team. Once you agree on the vessel, route, and any optional add-ons with the manager in the chat, a secure online payment link is provided to settle the deposit by card payment. A booking becomes firm once the 30 % deposit is paid. Without this deposit, open calendar slots remain available to other inquiries, so securing your date promptly ensures your boat is locked in. The remaining balance is then settled conveniently before boarding the vessel. If unexpected weather conditions disrupt your planned cruise date, our policy ensures your payment is protected through rescheduling or a full refund. Because every voyage is arranged as a private charter, your party has exclusive access to the vessel without sharing deck space with outside groups. Connecting with our chat team lets you finalize all details, customize your itinerary, and confirm your reservation with complete confidence.

Essential Charter Amenities Included in the Price

Every private motor yacht in Dubai in our collection comes equipped with essential amenities built into the standard pricing structure. The rate shown is VAT-inclusive, meaning the price you see covers all applicable taxes upfront without unexpected fees at checkout. Your private charter includes a professional licensed captain and qualified deck crew dedicated entirely to your safety, navigation, and comfort on the water. Standard fuel for cruising along the coast is covered within the rate, allowing your party to glide smoothly between major sights without separate fuel charges. Onboard hospitality includes complimentary chilled bottled water, soft drinks, and fresh ice kept ready in the galley coolers. Guests also enjoy full access to the vessel's sound system to stream their own playlists throughout the indoor salon and outdoor sun decks. The total cost to charter a yacht depends primarily on the vessel's size and duration rather than hidden add-ons. Every charter across our fleet is entirely private, providing your group with exclusive use of the lounge, flybridge, and bow sunbeds. Knowing that essentials like professional crew service, fuel, refreshing drinks, and taxes are already integrated into the base price allows guests to plan their event with absolute clarity.

Which Custom Entertainment Options Can You Add?

Enhancing your private motor yacht in Dubai with specialized additions makes any occasion on the water even more memorable. For fishing enthusiasts, having rods, tackle, and fresh bait ready on board is available for AED 150, allowing your party to cast lines into open coastal waters. If you are hosting a romantic evening or special celebration, having your yacht decorated before you arrive starts from AED 350, while candles and flowers set up on deck can be arranged from AED 400. To preserve every highlight of your trip, a professional photographer on board can be booked from AED 500 per hour to capture high-quality photos against the skyline. Thrill-seekers can also request exciting water sports add-ons, including high-powered jet skis, flyboards, paddle boards, seabobs, or fun banana and donut towable rides. Water sports gear and deep-sea fishing setups are coordinated directly through your charter manager during booking. Guests can also request live DJ equipment, high-definition projectors for presentations, or private luxury car transfers to bring your group straight to the marina gates. Customizing your itinerary with tailored extras turns a standard cruise into a personalized celebration out on the sea.

Guest Capacity Categories for Our Fleet Selections

Selecting the right motor yacht in Dubai depends heavily on the total number of people attending your event. Our fleet features 77 suitable boats among our 88 total vessels, offering options that cater to gatherings of almost any scale. Intimate parties, family outings, or small group meetings fit comfortably on compact cruisers ranging from 40 to 50 ft. Mid-sized motor vessels spanning 50 to 70 ft provide extra elbow room, expanded sun decks, and spacious indoor lounges for medium groups. For grand corporate events, milestone celebrations, or large wedding parties, our largest capacity accommodates up to 75 guests on broad multi-deck superyachts. Every trip is run as a private charter, meaning your group has exclusive access to the entire vessel regardless of how many guests are on board. Having clear capacity limits helps match your party with a boat that offers ample seating, shade, and deck area for everyone. From small coastal cruises to large-scale deck receptions, our fleet delivers comfortable layouts designed to host your specific group size with ease.

Child Safety Guidelines and Easy Boarding Policies

Stepping aboard a luxury vessel should be a relaxing experience from the moment your group arrives at the dock. When booking a motor yacht in Dubai with our fleet, boarding needs no ID or passport check, allowing your party to walk onto the deck smoothly without paperwork delays at the marina gates. Families traveling with children and infants are always welcome on board, with safe indoor salons and secure deck railings providing peace of mind throughout the trip. To maintain pristine conditions across every boat, a barefoot cruising policy is observed inside the living areas and main decks. Removing footwear before stepping aboard protects high-grade teak decking and keeps interior carpets clean for all guests. The private nature of our charters means your family enjoys exclusive use of all cabins, lounges, and sun decks without outside crowds. A professional captain and experienced crew manage all navigation and safety oversight, allowing parents to unwind and enjoy panoramic views of the coast. Whether hosting a multi-generational family gathering or a quiet day out with young kids, our straightforward boarding procedures ensure a smooth start to your voyage.

How Does Seasonal Timing Shape Charter Rates?

Timing plays a noticeable role when organizing a private boat charter off the UAE coast. Evening departures during sunset hours and weekend slots are consistently in high demand, attracting travelers and residents looking to watch the city lights illuminate the skyline. Cruising during bright morning hours or mid-week afternoons often provides a calmer experience out on the water. Peak coastal sailing season stretches across the cooler months from November through April, when mild weather brings steady demand for open-deck cruising. Conversely, during the warmer summer period from May through September, chartering a luxury motor yacht in Dubai remains popular thanks to fully air-conditioned indoor salons and shade coverage on upper decks. Regardless of the time of year you choose to sail, bad weather never results in a loss for the guest. If heavy seas or rain prevent safe navigation, your scheduled trip is easily moved to another available date or the payment is promptly returned in full. Planning your schedule around cooler sunset hours or quiet morning sea breezes helps customize your experience, whether you seek a lively celebration or a peaceful coastal tour. Our private charter format means your group enjoys the entire boat exclusively, avoiding the crowded decks and fixed schedules of ticketed shared tours.

Onboard Food Options and Custom Catering Services

Bringing your own refreshments onto a motor yacht in Dubai is completely stress-free. There is no corkage fee across our fleet, meaning guests are welcome to bring whatever food, soft beverages, and alcohol they prefer for their time at sea. For those who prefer a completely turn-key dining experience without preparing meals in advance, our team can arrange various custom catering options upon request. A full dinner served on board can be added starting from AED 250 per guest, featuring hot entrees, delicious sides, and crisp salad. If you are celebrating a birthday, anniversary, or special milestone, a custom celebration cake brought on board can be arranged from AED 250. For guests who enjoy fresh seafood and active fishing, our crew can set up fishing equipment, and having your catch cooked on board in the galley is available for AED 150. Live barbecue service and warm buffet setups are popular choices for mid-day trips and evening cruises alike. Whether you pack a simple picnic, order gourmet platters, or request a complete multi-course hot dinner, dining out on the water provides an excellent backdrop as you glide past iconic city landmarks.

Popular Cruising Paths Past Coastal Landmarks

Setting sail on a motor yacht in Dubai offers scenic cruising routes along iconic waterfront landmarks. Departures take place from top coastal locations, including Dubai Harbour and Dubai Marina, giving your group immediate access to open waters. A standard two-hour cruise provides ample time to glide past the high-rise towers of JBR, marvel at the giant Ain Dubai observation wheel on Bluewaters, and head toward the outer crescent of Palm Jumeirah. Extending your voyage to three or four hours allows your captain to navigate further along the shoreline toward the striking sails of Burj Al Arab. During daylight charters, captains can anchor in sheltered waters, giving guests time to relax on deck, enjoy catering, or take part in requested water sports. Route itineraries remain flexible and can be customized with your captain based on wind, sea conditions, and your group's preferences. Returning to the marina at sunset offers spectacular photo opportunities as city lights reflect off the water, capping off a private coastal tour.
