What is a yacht?

Alcohol restrictions on yachts in Dubai include: - Age limit: The minimum age for alcohol consumption is 21 years. - Amount of alcohol per person: no more than 250 ml of strong alcohol and 500 ml of weak alcohol per person are allowed. If guests want to take more on board, they may be refused, as a large amount of alcohol can lead to severe intoxication. And it may not be safe for guests.

Tourism is one of the key sectors of Dubai's economy. The city attracts millions of tourists annually due to its unique blend of luxury, culture, and entertainment. Investments in infrastructure, hotels, world-class amusement parks, and events make Dubai appealing to travelers from all over the world. I noticed how the city is focused on meeting the needs of tourists: high quality service, safety, and a variety of offerings. Tourism contributes to the development of other economic sectors, creating jobs and stimulating investment. The government has set ambitious goals to increase tourist flow, evident in large-scale projects and marketing campaigns.

There are no specific medical requirements for most tourists entering Dubai. However, it is recommended to have standard vaccinations such as those for hepatitis A and B, diphtheria, tetanus, and polio. At the time of my trip, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it was necessary to provide a negative PCR test taken no earlier than 72 hours prior to departure. I advise checking the current requirements on the official website of the UAE Ministry of Health or with your airline in advance. It is also helpful to have health insurance that covers potential medical expenses abroad.

In the UAE, where vast sandy beaches meet the turquoise waters of the Persian Gulf, every sea is beautiful in its own way. But if you're looking for something special, you should pay attention to Fujairah. Fujairah is the only emirate of the UAE located on the east coast, washed by the Indian Ocean. The ocean there is deeper and the turquoise-blue hue of the water in Fujairah is brighter than on the Persian Gulf coast. There are fewer sandstorms here because the emirate is protected by the Hajar Mountains, creating an extraordinary landscape. It is in Fujairah that you can find coral reefs that attract diving and snorkeling enthusiasts. So if you're looking for beauty and uniqueness, Fujairah is your choice!

Visa requirements for visiting Dubai depend on the nationality of the visitor. Citizens of many countries can obtain a visa upon arrival at Dubai Airport. 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.

Dubai offers a variety of ways to get around, and each one adds its own charm to your journey. Dubai Metro is ultra—modern and fully automated, it will quickly take you to the main attractions, and the windows offer impressive views of the city. "Taxis" are available everywhere and relatively inexpensive, drivers are often talkative and can share local tips. For a more authentic experience, try the Abra, a traditional wooden boat that will ferry you across Dubai Creek for just one dirham. And if you feel like an adventurer, rent a car and explore the city on your own, but be prepared for heavy traffic and confusing interchanges.

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.

The rules of radio and satellite communication on a yacht in Dubai include: - Radio equipment license: All vessels must have a license to use radio equipment. - Frequencies: The use of approved frequencies for maritime communications, such as VHF channels for communication with coastal services and other vessels. - International rules: Compliance with international radio regulations, including the use of calls and responses in accordance with maritime protocols.

There is an unspoken rule among experts - the annual cost of maintaining a yacht is estimated at about 10% of its value. This allows potential buyers to estimate future costs in advance. However, you should not overly concentrate on the financial side of the issue, so as not to deprive yourself of the joy of owning a yacht.

No, this is prohibited by safety rules.
