FAQ
Questions about the Marina Lyra
- How much does the Marina Lyra cost to charter?
- AED 1,050 per hour, with a 2 hour minimum — so AED 2,100 for the shortest charter. Crew, fuel and marina fees are inside that rate, and there is no separate booking fee.
- How many guests can the Marina Lyra carry?
- Up to 16. That number comes from the vessel licence rather than from deck space, it includes children and infants, and a captain cannot exceed it. Give us your real headcount and we will move you up a size if it is close.
- How big is the Marina Lyra?
- 55 feet, built as a Azimut 55, with 3 cabins and a crew of 2.
- Can we swim from the Marina Lyra?
- Yes, on any charter of three hours or more. We anchor in sheltered water behind the Palm Jumeirah crescent or off the World Islands and put out the swim ladder, snorkels and floating mats. A 2 hour charter stays under way — there is not time to anchor properly.
- What is included with the Marina Lyra?
- Captain and crew, fuel, all marina and departure fees, chilled water, soft drinks and ice, swim equipment, life jackets in adult and children's sizes, and a Bluetooth sound system. Catering and any extras are agreed in writing beforehand.
