The yacht can be stored in several places during the off-season: Marinas: Marinas provide secure places for storing yachts on the water or on land. They often offer maintenance services. Covered parking: Provides protection of the yacht from weather conditions and includes care and maintenance services. Open parking lots on land: A more budget option, in which the yacht is stored on a special site with minimal protection from weather conditions. Private Berths: If you have your own berth or storage space, this can be a convenient and economical option.

Dubai is becoming increasingly prominent on the global art scene. Contemporary art flourishes in the Alserkal Avenue galleries, which host exhibitions, performances, and festivals. I attended Art Dubai, an international art fair that brings together artists and collectors from around the world. Traditional art is also valued. Museums and cultural centers offer workshops in Arabic calligraphy, ceramics, and textile art. I tried my hand at creating henna patterns and was impressed by the complexity and beauty of this craft.Music and theater are represented at the Dubai Opera, where I enjoyed performances by world-renowned ballet and opera stars in a modern building with unique architecture.

Yachts use various navigation systems to ensure safe and accurate sailing: GPS (Global Positioning System): The main system for location and navigation. Modern GPS receivers provide data on the coordinates, speed and course of the yacht. Chartplotters: Electronic devices that display maps and integrate GPS data, providing a visual representation of the route and surrounding objects. Autopilots: Automatic control systems that help maintain the yacht's course without the constant intervention of the captain. AIS (Automatic Identification System): An automatic identification system that allows you to see other vessels in the field of view and exchange data on location, speed and course. Radar systems: Used to detect objects and navigate in low visibility conditions such as fog or night. Echo sounders: Devices for measuring the depth of water under the keel of a yacht, which helps to avoid shoals and underwater obstacles. Paper nautical charts and compasses: Traditional navigation tools that remain important in the case of failure of electronic systems.

To go out into the open ocean, special yachts are needed, which are highly durable, reliable and equipped with everything necessary for long sea crossings. Here are the main types of yachts that can go out to the ocean: Ocean cruisers Sailing Cruisers: These yachts are specially designed for long voyages in ocean conditions. They have a sturdy hull, usually made of steel or aluminum, and are equipped with everything necessary for autonomous navigation, including a navigation system, satellite communications and sufficient supplies of fuel and fresh water.  - Examples: Oyster 565, Hallberg-Rassy 44, Amel 50. Motor cruisers: Motor yachts for ocean crossings also have a solid construction and large fuel tanks, allowing them to cover long distances without refueling. They are equipped for a comfortable stay on board for several weeks or months.    - Examples: Nordhavn 60, Fleming 55, Selene 54. Expedition yachts These yachts are designed for extreme conditions and are often used for research expeditions. They have reinforced hulls capable of withstanding ice loads and severe sea conditions.    - Examples: Damen SeaXplorer, Numarine XP Series, Arksen 85. Catamarans Catamarans, due to their stability and spaciousness, are also suitable for ocean crossings. They provide a large living area and comfort in swimming.    - Examples: Lagoon 620, Fountaine Pajot Alegria 67, Catana 53. Trimarans Trimarans, like catamarans, have high stability and speed, which makes them suitable for crossing oceans.    - Examples: Neel 51, Dragonfly 40, Corsair 37. Key features of ocean yachts: Robust housing: Materials such as steel, aluminum or carbon fiber provide high strength and reliability. Autonomy: Large fuel tanks, water desalination systems and sufficient provisions for a long voyage. Navigation equipment: Modern navigation and satellite communication systems for safe and accurate navigation. Comfort: Providing comfortable conditions for the crew for a long time, including heating, air conditioning and entertainment systems. Choosing a yacht for ocean travel depends on the planned routes, budget and personal preferences, but the main thing is safety, reliability and the ability to withstand the harsh conditions of the open sea.

- Islands of the world islands: a beautiful route to the islands that lasts no more than an hour will not let children get bored, after which you can walk around the island, see peacocks, collect shells on the beach and use water bike rental, organize fishing for a child.

Despite the city's reputation for high resource consumption, Dubai is actively implementing green initiatives. I visited The Sustainable City, a district fully designed with sustainability principles in mind. It utilizes renewable energy sources, a waste recycling system, and water conservation measures. The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park is one of the largest in the world and demonstrates the city's commitment to clean energy. Campaigns are also being conducted to reduce plastic usage and conserve biodiversity, especially in marine ecosystems. During my visit to Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary, I learned about programs to protect mangrove forests and rare bird species. These efforts show that Dubai takes its impact on the environment seriously.
