What Deck Amenities Await Your Group on Board?

Spacious outdoor layouts define our power multihulls, providing ample lounge space across the forward bow trampoline netting, open aft seating, and sunbeds. Inside, air-conditioned saloons offer panoramic windows, modern audio systems, cold refrigeration, and private restroom facilities. Whether you set up mini yacht rentals for smaller gatherings or select a broader layout, these twin-hull vessels deliver extraordinary stability. Groups up to 45 guests can relax comfortably, bring their own food and alcohol at no extra charge, or request turnkey catering directly through our management team.

Private Charters Offer Tailored Coastal Experiences

Reserving an entire power vessel ensures your group enjoys total privacy without sharing space with strangers. Departures run daily between 9:00 and 23:00, allowing complete flexibility for custom cruise lengths or sunset anchorings. Guests can swim in quiet open waters while our professional crew manages navigation and safety. For those looking for alternative water activities, speed boat rides in Dubai Marina provide quick excitement, yet a motor catamaran offers relaxed, open-deck comfort. Upfront pricing includes VAT, keeping every fee transparent before your party steps on board.

Iconic Landmarks Line Our Coastal Cruise Itinerary

Cruising along the shoreline reveals the most celebrated architectural sights of the coast on a 5-hour journey. Starting at Marina Walk, our vessel sails past Ain Dubai, the towering arches of Atlantis The Palm, and the distinctive sail silhouette of Burj Al Arab before reaching Antarctica Island on The World Islands Tour. Guests need no passport or ID to step aboard, making the embarkation process prompt and straightforward. Every tour offers excellent photo opportunities against world-famous backdrops while enjoying uncrowded deck spaces with family or friends.

How Do Guests Book and Secure Competitive Pricing?

Securing your preferred charter slot requires a simple 30% advance payment made via a secure online card link sent through WhatsApp. Unpaid calendar dates are not held, so reserving early ensures availability for your desired time between 9:00 and 23:00. If poor weather prevents sailing, guests choose between rescheduling or receiving a full refund. Messages sent to our team receive replies within fifteen minutes from 9:00 to 23:00 Gulf time. Optional extras such as cake deliveries from AED 250 or yacht decorations from AED 350 are easily added.

Multihull Design Offers Distinct Stability Advantages

Engineered with twin parallel hulls, a power catamaran eliminates the sharp side-to-side tilting common to single-hull vessels. This dual-hull geometry creates a wider beam, yielding excellent balance on open sea waters and dramatically reducing motion sickness. The shallow draft also allows smooth navigation closer to beaches and coves. Measuring 55-60 ft in length, these motor craft feature broad outdoor surface areas for moving around effortlessly. Guests seeking deep-sea action can charter a private fishing boat in Dubai with gear ready on board for AED 150.

Which boat to take

Common questions

What Should Guests Expect During a Catamaran Cruise?

A catamaran trip is a private sea voyage aboard a twin-hull motor vessel. The dual-hull design provides excellent balance, spacious lounge decks, and wide saloons for groups touring the coast.

What are the rates for hiring a catamaran locally?

Hourly rental rates for 5 suitable boats in our fleet range from AED 1,600 to AED 4,000 per hour. All quoted prices include VAT with no hidden fees added later.

How is the term catamaran defined?

The word refers to a watercraft built with two parallel hulls joined by a central deck structure. This configuration maximizes usable deck space while minimizing rolling motions on the water.

How do twin-hull vessels differ from monohull sailboats?

A catamaran relies on dual hulls for natural upright balance, whereas a traditional sailboat uses a single hull with a heavy ballast keel that heels into the wind. Our fleet consists entirely of motor-powered catamarans.

What separates a private multihull from public transport ferries?

A ferry provides public transport along fixed municipal schedules, whereas our catamaran charters are entirely private voyages booked exclusively for your group with tailored itineraries.

Which route does the 5-hour charter follow?

Our 5-hour World Islands Tour departs from Marina Walk and sails past Ain Dubai, Atlantis The Palm, and Burj Al Arab before stopping at Antarctica Island, offering panoramic views and swimming stops.

Do you offer battery-powered multihulls in your local selection?

We charter modern motor-powered catamarans and power yachts. For specific eco-friendly or specialized propulsion preferences, our managers provide current fleet details in the chat.

Where do your multihull charter departures take place?

Our private catamaran departures launch from Dubai Harbour and Marina Walk, serving guests traveling from across the UAE who want a private coastal excursion.

What is the overall price range for chartering a multihull?

Charter prices range from AED 1,600 to AED 4,000 per hour depending on the chosen vessel size, with lengths from 55-60 ft accommodating up to 45 guests.
