Is it possible to spend the night on a yacht in Dubai, like in a hotel?

For sea walks on the yacht, we recommend wearing the following shoes - yacht topsiders or sneakers.

At the foot of the Burj Khalifa, in the heart of the city, lies the Dubai Fountain, the largest choreographic fountain in the world. Imagine: evening comes, and suddenly the dark surface of the lake comes to life with thousands of jets of water soaring to a height of 150 meters. To the beat of the music — from classical Arabic melodies to modern world hits — the water dances, changing colors and shapes. I stood among the mesmerized crowd, feeling the cool spray on my face and forgetting about the time. This show repeats every half hour, and each time it seems unique. Nearby there are cozy restaurants and cafes where you can enjoy the view with a cup of tea or something stronger.

Renting a yacht without a captain is impossible.

Dubai Miracle Garden is the world's largest flower park, covering an area of over 72,000 square meters. It features impressive floral arrangements, sculptures and installations created from more than 50 million flowers. The park is constantly being updated, offering visitors new and exciting exhibitions every season. It is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Dubai. When is it open to the public? Dubai Miracle Garden is usually open to the public from mid-November to mid-May. The park is closed for the summer months due to the high temperature, which does not allow the flowers to stay fresh. It is recommended to check the park's official website before visiting to find out the exact opening and closing dates, as well as opening hours.

In Dubai, as in many other places, it's important to respect personal space and cultural norms when taking photographs. Photographing military installations, government buildings, and airports is strictly prohibited. It's also not advisable to photograph local people without their consent, especially women. I always try to be polite and ask for permission if I want to take a portrait. In most tourist areas, photography is allowed, and you'll be able to take plenty of stunning shots. However, some mosques and religious sites may have restrictions, so it's best to check with the venue. Drone usage is also regulated and requires special permission.

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.

Many mosques in Dubai are open to visitors, allowing for a better understanding of Islamic culture and architecture. The Jumeirah Mosque is one of the most beautiful and welcoming. I joined a tour organized by the Sheikh Mohammed Centre for Cultural Understanding, where the guide explained traditions, rituals, and answered all questions. It is important to dress modestly: shoulders and knees should be covered, and women should wear a scarf to cover their heads. Shoes must be removed before entering. Photography inside is usually allowed, but it’s best to check with the guide. Visiting the mosque was a profound and enlightening experience for me.

Dubai is known for its luxurious hotels offering a unique experience. Burj Al Arab, a symbol of luxury, provides suites with personal butlers and a helicopter pad. I visited it for dinner and was impressed by the level of service and interiors. Atlantis The Palm on the Palm Jumeirah offers a water park, underwater rooms, and various entertainments. For those looking for a stylish and modern hotel, Armani Hotel in Burj Khalifa combines elegance and comfort. I stayed at Jumeirah Beach Hotel, where the private beach and views of Burj Al Arab made the stay unforgettable.

Dubai is a dynamic metropolis with a population of about 3.3 million people. But what makes it truly unique is the diversity of its inhabitants. About 85% of the population are expats from India, Pakistan, the Philippines, Europe and many other countries. This creates a cosmopolitan atmosphere where cultures mix, creating a unique social landscape. I often found myself chatting with people of various nationalities, learning about their traditions and experiences of life in Dubai. This is a city where everyone can find their place and feel part of a global community.
