Yacht parties in Dubai

A private yacht party in Dubai starts at AED 1,500 for two hours on a boat carrying twelve, and about AED 12,800 for four hours on an 85ft carrying thirty-five. The whole boat goes to your group — there is no shared deck and no other party on board.

Notice
Two weeks for a weekend in winter

The reason a boat beats a venue for a party is that everyone stays. Nobody drifts off to another bar, nobody leaves at ten, and the guest list is exactly the people you invited. The whole thing runs on your timings because the boat does not open to anyone else.

The sensible shape is three to four hours. Board, run out through the Marina channel while people settle, anchor somewhere quiet for swimming and food, then come back with the skyline lit. Two hours works but is over before it starts; six hours on a boat is longer than most parties need.

Sound systems are Bluetooth on every boat and loud enough on the 62ft and 85ft for a DJ to plug into. Decoration, cake, catering, photographer and DJ are all arranged through us or brought by you. Both are normal and neither costs extra beyond the supplier.

Options

Ways to do this

  • Twelve guests, 3 hours

    From AED 2,250 · 48ft

    The most-booked party charter. Comfortable for a dozen without feeling empty, and cheap enough to split easily.

  • Twenty-two guests, 4 hours

    From AED 5,600 · 62ft

    Deck space for people to spread out and an air-conditioned saloon when the afternoon gets heavy.

  • Thirty-five guests, 4 hours

    From AED 12,800 · 85ft

    A crew of five, formal dining inside, a sun-deck jacuzzi. This is a venue rather than a boat.

  • A hundred guests, private dhow

    From AED 9,000 · 2 hours

    For a party too large for a yacht. A whole traditional dhow with a buffet, which works out far cheaper per head.

FAQ

Questions people ask

How much is a yacht party in Dubai?
From AED 1,500 for two hours on a boat carrying twelve, AED 5,600 for four hours on a 62ft carrying twenty-two, and AED 12,800 for four hours on an 85ft carrying thirty-five. Split across a full guest list a yacht party often costs less per head than a restaurant table.
How many people can you have at a yacht party in Dubai?
Twelve to thirty-five on our own boats. Above that, a privately hired dhow takes up to a hundred guests from about AED 9,000 for two hours, which is the cheapest route for a large party.
Is a yacht party in Dubai private?
Ours are. The whole boat goes to your group and there is no other party aboard. Shared party-boat tickets exist in Dubai and cost less per seat, but you share the deck with strangers.
Can we bring a DJ on the yacht?
Yes. The 62ft and 85ft have sound systems a DJ can plug into and deck space for a booth. On the smaller boats a Bluetooth playlist works better than a DJ setup.
Can we drink alcohol at a yacht party in Dubai?
On boats that permit it, with a licensed supply we arrange or that you bring by prior agreement. UAE law applies on the water as on land, and we will tell you at the enquiry stage exactly what your boat allows.
How long should a yacht party be?
Three to four hours. That is enough to run out, anchor for swimming and food, and come back with the skyline lit. Two hours is over before people settle; six is longer than most parties hold together.
