Yacht Cruise Dubai
Yacht Cruise Dubai - sail the seas of Arabia and enjoy the summum of luxury. This is the life you can soon get used to!
Despite being a paradise in the desert, much of Dubai’s lifestyle revolves around the sea. The Arabian waters, slowly lapping onto white sandy beaches. Skyscrapers, reaching high into the sky, and reflecting into the crystal waters.
The group will board a luxury yacht at the upmarket Dubai Marina, and embark on a scenic cruise, showcasing and passing by the most stunning features Dubai has to offer. Cruise peacefully past the Palm Island with the famous Atlantis Hotel, and towards Jumeirah Beach, with the world renowned 7* hotel; Burj Al Arab and whilst gazing at the incredible Dubai Skyline. Dubai Marina is set on a two-mile stretch of pristine sandy beaches facing the Arabian Gulf. You will find broad boulevards lining the beaches for a scenic walk. Here you can spot the marina superyachts berthed at Dubai’s International Marine Club or admire skydivers and parachutists in the blue skies above.
