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

When you first see the glittering skyscrapers of Dubai, it's hard to imagine that less than a century ago there were only sand dunes and fishing boats bobbing on the waves of the Persian Gulf. The history of Dubai begins at the beginning of the XVIII century, when the Bani Yas clan founded a small settlement near the Dubai Creek. This narrow bay has become a vital artery for trade and fishing. In 1833, the Al Maktoum clan peacefully seized power, and since then Dubai has been ruled by this dynasty. But the real turning point came in the middle of the 20th century with the discovery of oil. Instead of relying solely on oil revenues, wise rulers invested in infrastructure, trade and tourism, turning Dubai into a global hub in a few decades.

There are several yacht clubs in Dubai, including: - Dubai Marina Yacht Club: One of the most prestigious full-service yacht clubs. - Dubai Offshore Sailing Club: A club for sailing enthusiasts with training programs. - Jumeirah Beach Hotel Marina: A club with its own berths and luxurious amenities.

Alcohol is available in Dubai, but its consumption is strictly regulated. Beverages can be purchased at licensed restaurants, bars, and nightclubs, usually located in hotels. I enjoyed a cocktail on the terrace of Barasti Beach Bar, where the music and sea views created a special atmosphere. However, drinking alcohol in public places outside designated areas is prohibited. Appearing intoxicated in public can lead to serious consequences. For residents, there is a licensing system for purchasing alcohol at specialized stores. It is important to respect local laws and customs to ensure a safe and enjoyable stay.

The conditions for obtaining a visa to visit Dubai depend on your nationality. Citizens of some countries (for example, EU countries, USA, UK, Russia, etc.) can visit the UAE without a visa for up to 30 or 90 days (depending on the country). The visa to Dubai depends on the nationality. Check the requirements for gdrfad.gov.ae or at the UAE consulate. I need a passport, a photo, tickets, a hotel reservation and money. There are tourist, guest and transit visas.

The cost of renting a yacht in Dubai may vary depending on the company providing the services. Main payment methods: Bank transfer: one of the most common payment methods, especially when booking in advance. The company provides you with the details for the transfer, and you make the payment through your bank. It is important to keep in mind that bank transfers can take several days, so it is recommended to do this in advance. Credit/Debit cards: Many companies accept credit and debit cards from Visa, Mastercard, American Express and other popular payment systems. This payment method is usually the fastest and most convenient. Cash: Cash payment is possible, especially if you book the yacht directly on site. Keep in mind that yacht rental amounts are usually significant, so it is better to clarify in advance the possibility of paying in cash and limits. Online payment systems: Some companies may accept payments through popular online payment systems such as PayPal. Important points when paying: Deposit: specify the amount and conditions of the deposit. A deposit is usually paid to cover possible damage to the yacht during the rental period and is refunded after the end of the lease if everything is in order with the yacht. Prepayment: Many companies require prepayment (usually from 20% to 50% of the rental price) when booking a yacht. Payment currency: Specify the currency in which the payment is accepted (usually UAE Dirhams (AED), US dollars (USD) or Euros (EUR)). Additional expenses: specify which expenses are included in the rental price (captain's services, fuel, insurance) and which are paid separately. Fees: there are fees for making a payment (for example, the commission of a bank or payment system). Payment confirmation: Be sure to keep the payment confirmation (bank transfer receipt or credit card receipt) until the end of the yacht rental.

We recommend booking the yacht in advance, especially at the peak of the season.

Dubai strives to be an inclusive city, and many public spaces are equipped for the convenience of people with disabilities. Most hotels, malls, and restaurants have ramps, lifts, and special restrooms. Public transportation, including the metro and buses, is adapted for wheelchair users. I noticed that many pedestrian crossings have tactile and sound signals for the visually impaired. In beach areas, special swimming chairs are provided. City services and staff are typically well-trained and ready to help when needed. This care for accessibility makes Dubai a comfortable place for all travelers.

Dubai's cultural scene is constantly evolving, offering a variety of events. Dubai Opera is an architectural masterpiece shaped like a traditional dhow boat. I attended a performance there and was impressed by the acoustics and comfort of the hall. The Opera's program includes ballet, musicals, classical concerts, and even contemporary shows. Magic Planet in Mall of the Emirates offers family entertainment programs, including theatrical productions and artist performances. Coca-Cola Arena is the largest indoor multi-purpose arena in the region, hosting concerts by global stars, sporting events, and festivals. I attended a concert of my favorite band and appreciated the high level of organization and technology.
