What cultural characteristics should be taken into account when yachting in Dubai?

The rules for using public transport in Dubai include: - Tickets: Use NOL cards to pay for subway, bus and water transport. - Dress code: Keep a decent appearance, avoid revealing clothes. - Behavior: Give way to the elderly and women with children, do not take up more than one seat. - Cleanliness: Keep clean, do not leave garbage in the transport. - Safety: Follow the safety rules, keep an eye on your belongings and do not leave them unattended.

Dubai is a unique cocktail of tradition and modernity. Despite the rapid growth and globalization, the city retains deep roots in Islamic culture. The muezzin's call to prayer five times a day fills the streets with melodious sounds. Hospitality here is not just a word, but a way of life: you will always be greeted with a smile and offered a cup of fragrant Arabic coffee with dates. It is customary to dress modestly, especially in places where there are many locals. At the same time, Dubai is open to different cultures and religions, and people from more than 200 nationalities live here side by side.

The prices for renting a boat in Dubai strongly depend on the selected vessel, the duration of the rental and additional services. On average, renting a small motorboat that can accommodate up to 8 people starts from 300 AED per hour. If you need a more spacious and luxurious boat, for example, a yacht 50-60 feet long, be prepared to pay from 500 AED to 5,000 AED per hour. The cost may vary depending on the level of comfort, the amenities provided and the services included, such as the availability of a captain and crew.

Driving in Dubai is organized to a high standard, but there are a few things to note. Driving is on the right-hand side of the road and the roads are generally of a high quality, making driving easy. However, traffic during rush hour can be heavy, especially on major roads like Sheikh Zayed Road. Speed and traffic cameras are in operation throughout the city, and fines can be substantial. I hired a car and found that local drivers can be quite fast and sometimes make unexpected maneuvers, so it’s important to be attentive. Parking can be expensive in the city center, but shopping malls often offer free parking. Public transport, including the metro and tram, is a good alternative for getting around the city.

Ski Dubai is a real winter resort in the heart of the desert, located inside the Mall of the Emirates. Imagine this: the scorching sun and 40°C outside, and you're standing at the top of a snowy slope, ready to ski or snowboard down. I couldn't miss the opportunity to experience this marvel of engineering. The complex maintains a constant temperature of around -4°C. I rented all the necessary equipment and went to explore five different slopes, including the longest one at 400 meters. It was a special treat to interact with real penguins in a specially equipped area. After skiing, I warmed up with hot chocolate in an alpine cafe, watching other skiers through panoramic windows.

Dubai rightfully earns its title as a global shopping haven. Dubai Mall, the world's largest shopping center, offers everything from luxury brands to high street names. I spent an entire day there and felt I only scratched the surface of its offerings. Mall of the Emirates is famous not only for its stores but also for Ski Dubai - an indoor ski resort. For a more authentic experience, visit the Madinat Jumeirah Souk - a modern market styled in traditional fashion, where you can purchase souvenirs, spices, and local artisan goods. And if you're seeking bargain deals, Dubai Outlet Mall offers discounted merchandise year-round.

For citizens of the CIS countries and other countries, preliminary visas may be required, which can be issued through tour operators or online on the website of the Emirati authorities.

The cockpit is the place on the yacht where all the magic happens. Here you control the ship, enjoy the sun and discuss with friends which of you will be the first in line for a cocktail. This is the ship's control area, where one or two steering wheels, a navigation system, winches for controlling sails and other equipment are located. The yacht's skipper spends most of his time here. The cockpit also applies to the entire interior of the yacht, unless it is divided into cabins, a gallery and other rooms. If you suddenly hear the phrase “everyone to the cockpit!”, this is just an invitation to have fun.
