The experience takes place aboard a traditional-style wooden dhow. You can enjoy an international and Arabic buffet dinner during the cruise. Water, juices and soft drinks are also served.

Choose the open-air upper deck for fresh air and clear views. You can also relax on the air-conditioned lower deck with panoramic windows. Seating is arranged by the cruise crew and is subject to availability.

This is a direct-reporting tour. Pickup and drop-off are not included in the basic ticket price. If you require transportation, select a shared or private transfer under Additional Services when booking.

Marina Dhow Cruise with Dinner

A Marina dhow cruise with dinner is a relaxing way to experience Dubai at night. The modern buildings, waterfront residences and luxury yachts create a memorable setting.

The cruise lasts approximately two hours. Boarding takes place between 7:45 PM and 8:15 PM. The dhow is scheduled to depart at 8:30 PM.

Please arrive early at the confirmed boarding location. The dhow cannot wait for late guests. Anyone arriving after departure may miss the cruise.

During the journey, you can see the Dubai Marina skyline, Bluewaters Island and Ain Dubai from the water. The exact sailing route may change because of weather, maritime regulations or operational requirements.

Dubai Marina Dinner Cruise Experience

Once the dhow begins sailing, take your seat and enjoy the evening views. The upper deck provides an open-air experience. The lower deck offers air-conditioned comfort.

The buffet includes a selection of international and Arabic dishes. Complimentary water, juices and soft drinks are available during the cruise.

Scheduled Tanura entertainment and background music add to the experience. Entertainment may not be available during Ramadan, UAE dry days, certain public holidays or because of local regulations.

The Dubai Marina dinner cruise is suitable for couples, families, friends and groups. It combines sightseeing, dining and entertainment in one evening.

Dubai Marina Views from the Water

Dubai Marina looks different when viewed from a dhow. The waterfront buildings and illuminated towers reflect across the water. Luxury yachts and boats also form part of the surrounding scenery.

You can take photographs as the dhow passes through the Marina. Bluewaters Island and Ain Dubai may also be visible along the route.

Many guests prefer the upper deck for photographs and fresh air. Others choose the lower deck for a cooler and more comfortable setting. Deck seating cannot be guaranteed unless specifically confirmed with your booking.

A Romantic Marina Cruise Dinner

A Dhow Cruise Marina Dubai is a popular choice for couples. The evening setting provides a calm break from Dubai’s busy roads and shopping areas.

You can enjoy dinner together while watching the Marina skyline. The relaxed atmosphere also makes the cruise suitable for birthdays, anniversaries and other personal occasions.

This is a shared dhow cruise. Other guests will be onboard, and table seating may be shared. Guests who require private transport can select the private transfer option. The dhow itself is not private unless a separate private charter has been arranged.

Dubai Marina Dhow Cruise for Families

Families can also enjoy the Dubai Marina dhow cruise. Children can experience the city from the water while adults relax and enjoy dinner.

The tour does not involve demanding physical activity. However, parents should supervise children while boarding, moving between decks and walking around the dhow.

Families travelling from different parts of Dubai should check their transport plans before booking. The basic package is direct reporting. Optional shared and private transfers are available as add-on services.
