Are children allowed for charter yacht?

Thanks to the warm climate and abundance of beaches, Dubai is a paradise for water sports enthusiasts. I tried kitesurfing at Kite Beach, where the wind and waves are perfect for this activity. The instructors are professional and friendly, making it easy for even beginners to learn the basics. For a more relaxed experience, you can try paddleboarding or kayaking along the coast. Speed lovers will appreciate jet skiing and water skiing. I also tried flyboarding — a device that lifts you above the water using a jet of pressurized water. It was an unforgettable feeling of flight and freedom.

There are no specific medical requirements for most tourists entering Dubai. However, it is recommended to have standard vaccinations such as those for hepatitis A and B, diphtheria, tetanus, and polio. At the time of my trip, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it was necessary to provide a negative PCR test taken no earlier than 72 hours prior to departure. I advise checking the current requirements on the official website of the UAE Ministry of Health or with your airline in advance. It is also helpful to have health insurance that covers potential medical expenses abroad.

Although Islam is the state religion of the UAE, Dubai demonstrates remarkable religious tolerance. It is home to people of various faiths, including Christianity, Hinduism, Sikhism, and Buddhism. The city has churches, temples, and gurdwaras where believers can freely practice their religion. I visited the Holy Trinity Church Complex, where several Christian denominations are located under one roof. This place has become a symbol of unity and understanding. Such openness contributes to the harmonious coexistence of many nationalities and cultures in Dubai.

The yacht can be stored in several places during the off-season: Marinas: Marinas provide secure places for storing yachts on the water or on land. They often offer maintenance services. Covered parking: Provides protection of the yacht from weather conditions and includes care and maintenance services. Open parking lots on land: A more budget option, in which the yacht is stored on a special site with minimal protection from weather conditions. Private Berths: If you have your own berth or storage space, this can be a convenient and economical option.

Dubai has become an international business hub thanks to its free economic zones, such as the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC). Companies here can benefit from tax exemptions, 100% foreign ownership, and simplified registration procedures.
