What cultural characteristics should be taken into account when yachting in Dubai?
When yachting in Dubai, it is important to take into account the following cultural characteristics:
- Clothing: A conservative dress code should be followed, especially when entering ports and marinas, especially for women. Avoid leaving the yacht in open swimsuits. Yacht club security may ask you to get dressed when going ashore.
- Behavior: Show respect for local customs and avoid public displays of affection. Kissing, hugging, touching intimate areas in yacht clubs in Arab countries is not recommended.
- Religious norms: Respect prayer times and religious holidays such as Ramadan. During fasting, do not eat food and water in public, this can cause discomfort to people who are without water and food all day.
- Alcohol: Drink alcohol only on board the yacht or in licensed places.

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.
