What are the best places to sunset from a yacht in Dubai?

The Dubai Frame is an architectural marvel, a giant frame standing 150 meters tall and 93 meters wide. Located in Zabeel Park, it symbolizes a window between Dubai's past and future. Ascending to the top, I found myself on a glass bridge with panoramic views of the city. On one side stretches old Dubai with its historic districts and souks, while on the other lies the modern metropolis with its skyscrapers and innovative projects. Walking across the transparent floor, I felt a slight dizziness, but the view was worth it. Downstairs, in the museum section, interactive exhibits tell the story of the city's past, present, and future.

The Dubai International Motor Show is the largest and most prestigious automobile exhibition in the Middle East. It shows new products from global automakers, concept cars, technologies and accessories. It takes place: Usually every two years, at the end of the year (November-December). The exact dates must be specified on the official website.

If the yacht is equipped with a kitchen, then it can be used.

Dubai's nightlife offers a variety of options for entertainment. I visited the Dubai Fountain — a musical fountain at the base of the Burj Khalifa, where the light and water show creates a captivating spectacle. City Walk and La Mer are popular areas with restaurants, cafes, and shops, perfect for evening strolls. Club enthusiasts can visit Zero Gravity or WHITE Dubai, where world-renowned DJs and artists perform. For a more cultural experience, the Dubai Opera offers shows, concerts, and musicals. Night markets and festivals, especially during the season, add vibrancy and allow you to immerse yourself in the local culture.

Dubai celebrates both religious and national holidays. The UAE National Day, celebrated on December 2nd, is a time of festivities, parades, and fireworks. The city is adorned with flags and lights, and I felt a special atmosphere of unity and pride among the residents. Ramadan is a holy month for Muslims, characterized by fasting and prayers. During this time, many restaurants and cafes are closed during the day but open in the evening for Iftar, the breaking of the fast after sunset. I participated in Iftar and was touched by the hospitality and spirituality of this event. Other holidays include Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, which are accompanied by family gatherings and charitable activities.

Dubai's cultural attractions include: - Dubai Museum: Located in Fort Al Fahidi, it presents the history and culture of Dubai. - Bastakiya district (Al-Fahidi): A historic area with traditional architecture and narrow streets. - Sheikh Saeed House: A museum dedicated to the life of the ruler of Dubai. - - Sheikh Mohammed Cultural Center: Organizes excursions and cultural events that introduce the traditions and customs of the UAE.

In Dubai's hot climate, water parks become a real lifesaver. Aquaventure Waterpark, located at Atlantis The Palm hotel, is one of the largest in the world. I tested my courage there on the "Leap of Faith" slide, where you are practically thrown vertically down through a transparent tube, passing through a shark pool. Wild Wadi Waterpark, located next to Burj Al Arab, offers themed attractions based on Arabian tales. I especially enjoyed "Jumeirah Sceirah" - a 33-meter high slide where you rush at speeds up to 80 km/h. For families with young children, Laguna Waterpark in La Mer offers more relaxed entertainment, including a lazy river and beach areas.

Dubai International Airport is one of the busiest in the world, but it is well organized. After landing, I decided to take the metro, which connects the airport directly to key areas of the city. It’s a quick and inexpensive way to reach the center. The trains are clean, air-conditioned, and have space for luggage. An alternative is taxis, which are available 24/7. Official taxis are cream-colored and equipped with meters; the ride to the center takes about 15-20 minutes, depending on traffic. For added comfort, you can arrange a transfer through your hotel or use services like Uber and Careem. I chose the metro and was pleasantly surprised by the convenience and efficiency of this mode of transport.
