Yacht charter in Dubai: How do I pay for a yacht?

The cost of renting a yacht in Dubai may vary depending on the company providing the services. Main payment methods: Bank transfer: one of the most common payment methods, especially when booking in advance. The company provides you with the details for the transfer, and you make the payment through your bank. It is important to keep in mind that bank transfers can take several days, so it is recommended to do this in advance. Credit/Debit cards: Many companies accept credit and debit cards from Visa, Mastercard, American Express and other popular payment systems. This payment method is usually the fastest and most convenient. Cash: Cash payment is possible, especially if you book the yacht directly on site. Keep in mind that yacht rental amounts are usually significant, so it is better to clarify in advance the possibility of paying in cash and limits. Online payment systems: Some companies may accept payments through popular online payment systems such as PayPal. Important points when paying: Deposit: specify the amount and conditions of the deposit. A deposit is usually paid to cover possible damage to the yacht during the rental period and is refunded after the end of the lease if everything is in order with the yacht. Prepayment: Many companies require prepayment (usually from 20% to 50% of the rental price) when booking a yacht. Payment currency: Specify the currency in which the payment is accepted (usually UAE Dirhams (AED), US dollars (USD) or Euros (EUR)). Additional expenses: specify which expenses are included in the rental price (captain's services, fuel, insurance) and which are paid separately. Fees: there are fees for making a payment (for example, the commission of a bank or payment system). Payment confirmation: Be sure to keep the payment confirmation (bank transfer receipt or credit card receipt) until the end of the yacht rental.

Cockpit what is it

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.

What opportunities does Dubai offer for outdoor activities?

Dubai is a platform for those who are looking for adrenaline and unusual experiences. One of the most exciting adventures for me was the desert safari. Imagine: you are racing in an SUV over endless dunes, sand is flying up in fountains around, and your heart is beating in time with the roaring engine. After a crazy race, dinner was waiting for us in a Bedouin camp under the stars, with belly dancing and fragrant barbecue. Fans of heights can go on "skydiving" over the "Palm Jumeirah" — an artificial island in the shape of a palm tree. I still remember the feeling of free fall and the breathtaking view of the city and the sea merging on the horizon. Water activities are also impressive: from "kitesurfing" at Kite Beach to "diving" among coral reefs and sunken ships.
