Where are the yachts refueled?

Refueling of yachts is carried out in specially equipped places called marinas and yacht clubs. Here are the main ways and places where you can refuel a yacht: Marinas and yacht clubs Marinas and yacht clubs are specially equipped harbors for yachts and boats, where various services are provided, including refueling. In such places, there are usually fuel stations with diesel and gasoline. Examples of popular marinas: - Port Hercule in Monaco - Marina del Rey in California - Dubai Mina Seyah (Dubai Mina Seyahi) Commercial port gas stations Some commercial ports also offer refueling services for yachts. These ports can serve both large commercial vessels and private yachts. Examples: - Port of Valencia (Port of Valencia, Spain) - Port of Hamburg (Port of Hamburg, Germany) Floating gas stations In some areas, there are floating gas stations that can sail up to the yacht for refueling. This is convenient in remote or less equipped places where there are no stationary fuel stations. Refueling ships In large yachting regions such as the Caribbean or the Mediterranean, there are refueling ships that can deliver fuel directly to a yacht anchored or sailing. Self-refueling For small yachts and boats that use gasoline, it is possible to refuel using cans. This is a less convenient, but sometimes necessary method in remote locations. Examples of marinas with gas stations: Porto Montenegro (Montenegro): offers a full range of yacht services, including refueling. Port Vauban (Antibes, France): one of the largest marinas in the Mediterranean with extensive refueling facilities. Marina di Porto Cervo (Sardinia, Italy): Popular among superyacht owners, it offers high-quality services and fuel. Refueling a yacht requires planning and taking into account the availability of fuel stations on the sailing route, especially in remote and hard-to-reach places.

Beyond Dubai's urban skyscrapers, stunning natural landscapes await. The desert is the heart of the emirate.

The Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary is a unique place where you can observe pink flamingos and other migratory birds in their natural habitat. Mountain enthusiasts can venture to the neighboring emirate of Hatta, home to Hatta Dam and Hatta Rock Pools – ideal spots for hiking, kayaking, and picnicking. I enjoyed the tranquility and coolness of the mountain air, a welcome contrast to the city's hustle and bustle.

What are the rules for taking photos in public places?

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.

Yacht rental in Dubai, do I need insurance when renting a yacht?

Definitely YES! Insurance when renting a yacht in Dubai is a prerequisite, not just a recommendation. Having insurance protects you from financial losses in case of unforeseen situations, such as: • Yacht damage: Regardless of who caused the damage, insurance will cover the repair costs. • Liability to third parties: if you cause damage to other people's property or health, the insurance will cover the costs of compensation for damage. • Accidents: Insurance can cover medical expenses in case of injury on board the yacht. • Yacht hijacking: In rare cases, insurance may cover losses from yacht hijacking. What insurance usually includes when renting a yacht: • Yacht hull insurance: covers damage to the yacht hull. Yacht equipment insurance: covers damage to the equipment installed on the yacht. • Third Party liability insurance: covers damage caused to third parties. • Accident insurance: Covers medical expenses in case of injury. Important points: • Specify which insurance is included in the yacht rental price. • Carefully study the terms of the insurance contract. • Find out which cases are covered by insurance and which are not. • Make sure that the insurance amount is sufficient to cover possible losses. • Ask about the deductible (the amount you will have to pay in case of an insured event). Don't skimp on insurance. It is better to pay a little more for rent, but be confident in your safety and financial security.
