Dubai Marina & Dubai Harbour

Aerial view of Dubai Marina, JBR beach and the coastline

Dubai Marina is where most private yacht cruises in Dubai begin, and it is the home base for every yacht rental in Dubai we offer. Lined with more than 200 towers, waterfront restaurants and the Marina Walk promenade, it is one of the largest man-made marinas in the world and a spectacular sight from the water, day or night.

Why Start Your Yacht Cruise at Dubai Marina?

Starting from Dubai Marina means you are only minutes from open water and the city’s best-known landmarks. As you leave the marina channel, the skyline opens up behind you and the coastline of JBR, Bluewaters Island and Palm Jumeirah comes into view ahead. Even a short cruise gives you some of the best photo opportunities in Dubai.

Next door, Dubai Harbour is one of the city’s newest waterfront districts, with a modern marina, cruise terminal and sleek residential towers. Sailing between Dubai Marina and Dubai Harbour shows you two sides of the city: the established high-rise skyline and the new waterfront development facing Palm Jumeirah.

What You Will See

  • The Dubai Marina skyline, including some of the tallest residential towers in the world
  • Marina Walk and the waterfront restaurants and cafés along the channel
  • Dubai Harbour’s new marina and towers
  • Open views towards JBR, Ain Dubai and the Palm Jumeirah

Best Ways to Enjoy Dubai Marina by Yacht

A one-hour marina cruise is perfect for a quick sightseeing trip or photos, while a sunset cruise shows the towers lighting up as the sun goes down. For celebrations, a party yacht or birthday yacht from the marina lets you combine music, food and skyline views. Companies also use the marina as an easy meeting point for a corporate yacht party, and anglers set off from here for deep sea fishing in Dubai.
