Which is better, a yacht or a boat?

The choice between a yacht and a boat depends on your needs, preferences and purposes of use.

Yacht:

Comfort and luxury: Yachts are usually more spacious and luxurious, equipped with cabins, kitchens, bathrooms and various amenities. They are ideal for long-term travel and accommodation on board.

Sailing range: Yachts are often designed for long-distance sea voyages, can cross oceans and be autonomous for a long time.

Social events: Due to the large space, the yachts are suitable for parties, corporate events and family celebrations.

Speedboat:

Maneuverability and speed: Boats are usually more maneuverable and faster, which makes them an excellent choice for short trips, water sports and fishing.

Easy operation: The boats are easier to operate, require less time for training and maintenance, which makes them convenient for beginners.

Cost-effective: Boats are often cheaper to buy and maintain compared to yachts, which can be an important factor for those who want to enjoy a water holiday without significant costs.

Thus, if you are looking for luxury and planning long trips by sea, a yacht will be the best choice. If you need speed, maneuverability and you are planning short trips, then a boat will be a more suitable option.

Which shopping malls are worth visiting in Dubai?

If you think shopping malls are just places to shop, Dubai is ready to change your mind. Dubai Mall is not just shopping, it's a whole world under the roof. Imagine a place where you can start the day by watching underwater wonders in a huge aquarium, then go ice skating on an ice rink in the middle of the desert, and in the evening watch a movie in a luxury cinema. I remember getting lost among more than a thousand shops, unexpectedly coming across a waterfall with figures of drivers, as if floating in the air. The Mall of the Emirates offers an even more surreal experience: inside it is Ski Dubai, a real ski resort with penguins and snow slides. Going down on skis, knowing that the scorching sun and sand are outside the walls, is an indescribable feeling.

What cruises and sea excursions are available to tourists?

Sea cruises offer a new perspective on Dubai. I went on an evening cruise through Dubai Marina on a traditional dhow boat. The city lights reflected in the water, creating a magical atmosphere. Dinner on board with local cuisine and live music made the evening unforgettable. For those seeking luxury, yacht rentals are available, allowing you to explore the coast, see the Palm Jumeirah, and Burj Al Arab from the sea.
