Cruise Overview
For those who want the Marina cruise experience elevated to true luxury — the Luxury Yacht Dinner Cruise is your answer. Instead of a traditional wooden dhow, you sail on a modern, sleek private yacht with only a small group of discerning guests.
The yacht departs from Dubai Marina Yacht Club and glides through the skyscraper canyon, past Atlantis The Palm, and around the Palm Jumeirah. The upper deck is open-air for skyline photos; the lower deck is fully air-conditioned with panoramic windows.
Dinner is a refined à la carte menu — not a buffet — prepared by the onboard chef. You'll choose from grilled seafood, lamb chops, premium steaks, and vegetarian options. A live saxophonist or pianist provides sophisticated background entertainment. Complimentary sparkling juice on arrival, with premium wine upgrades available.
Ideal for honeymoons, anniversaries, proposals, and corporate dinners. Maximum 30 guests ensures an intimate experience with personalised service.

"Booked for our 10th anniversary. The yacht, the à la carte dinner, the live saxophone, the skyline — everything was perfect. Felt like a scene from a movie. Unforgettable."
