Which companies provide yacht rental services in Dubai?

Dubai celebrates both religious and national holidays. The UAE National Day, celebrated on December 2nd, is a time of festivities, parades, and fireworks. The city is adorned with flags and lights, and I felt a special atmosphere of unity and pride among the residents. Ramadan is a holy month for Muslims, characterized by fasting and prayers. During this time, many restaurants and cafes are closed during the day but open in the evening for Iftar, the breaking of the fast after sunset. I participated in Iftar and was touched by the hospitality and spirituality of this event. Other holidays include Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, which are accompanied by family gatherings and charitable activities.

Before traveling, it is important to familiarize yourself with the visa requirements. Citizens of many countries, including Russia, can obtain a free tourist visa on arrival for up to 90 days. I recommend checking the current information on the official website of the emirate or at the UAE consulate, as rules may change. Upon entry, you will need a valid passport that is valid for at least six months from the date of arrival. At the airport, I was asked to fill out a migration card and go through standard control procedures. Everything went quickly and without complications, and soon I was enjoying the sights of the city.

The sunny beaches of Dubai are the perfect place to relax and unwind. Jumeirah Beach Residence (JBR) is a lively white sand beach where you can not only swim, but also enjoy the numerous cafes and restaurants on the promenade "The Walk". Kite Beach attracts water sports enthusiasts: here you can try kitesurfing or just watch the professionals. For a more relaxing stay, Sunset Beach is suitable, offering stunning views of the Burj Al Arab Sail Hotel. Many beaches are equipped with showers, changing rooms and offer rental of sun beds and umbrellas, so you can spend the whole day in a comfortable environment.

Marinas in Dubai provide the following services: - Berths: Yacht mooring and storage services. - Fuel: Refueling. - Amenities: Showers, toilets, restaurants and bars.

When choosing a yacht for rent in Dubai, the following factors should be taken into account.

• Burj Al Arab (Burj Al Arab): The famous sail hotel is one of the most recognizable symbols of Dubai. The yacht offers magnificent views of its architecture and surrounding beaches. This is a great opportunity to take spectacular photos. • Palm Jumeirah: an artificial island in the shape of a palm tree, on which luxury hotels, villas and entertainment complexes are located. Sail along the "branches" of the palm tree and admire this grandiose project. • Dubai Marina (Dubai Marina): a modern area with skyscrapers, canals and yacht parking lots. A walk along the Dubai Marina will allow you to experience the atmosphere of luxury and dynamic city life. • The World Islands: a unique archipelago of artificial islands created in the form of a world map. Admire this large-scale project from the water and imagine yourself traveling around the world. • Ain Dubai (The Ain Dubai Ferris Wheel): a huge Ferris wheel on Bluewaters Island. The yacht offers an impressive view of the wheel and the surrounding landscape. • Jumeirah Beach Residence (JBR): A coastal area with many cafes, restaurants and shops. From the yacht you can see the lively promenade and beaches of JBR. • Dubai Creek: The historical part of Dubai, where traditional Arab dhow boats and ancient buildings are located. A walk along Dubai Creek will allow you to plunge into the city's past. Recommendations: • Coordinate the route with the yacht's captain. • Specify the sunset time to enjoy the beautiful view of the city in the rays of the setting sun. • Bring your camera or camera with you to capture the highlights of your trip.

Thanks to the warm climate and abundance of beaches, Dubai is a paradise for water sports enthusiasts. I tried kitesurfing at Kite Beach, where the wind and waves are perfect for this activity. The instructors are professional and friendly, making it easy for even beginners to learn the basics. For a more relaxed experience, you can try paddleboarding or kayaking along the coast. Speed lovers will appreciate jet skiing and water skiing. I also tried flyboarding — a device that lifts you above the water using a jet of pressurized water. It was an unforgettable feeling of flight and freedom.

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.

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.
