What Guest Capacity Fits Comfortably on Midsize Vessels?

Selecting the right craft for your gathering depends entirely on group size and layout preferences. Across 6 of our 88 fleet options, vessels in the 46-50 ft size band provide multiple outdoor and indoor zones. The largest capacity in this range accommodates up to 17 guests comfortably across an elevated flybridge, forward sunbathing deck, and enclosed indoor rooms. Guests planning a special gathering can enjoy an evening Iftar on a yacht while taking advantage of full climate control inside when stepping off the open decks. Boarding regulations and dress code are relaxed, allowing casual dress so everyone stays comfortable during the voyage.

Which Inclusions Come with Your Private Vessel Charter?

A professional captain and experienced deck crew accompany every journey to manage navigation, docking, and safety equipment. Guests need no passport or identity document when stepping onto the vessel, making arrival quick and straightforward. Cruising along the waterfront also provides access to swimming and water sports activities using optional jet ski or paddle board add-ons when anchored in calm bays. Booking process and payment terms are completed entirely through direct chat, where our team replies within 15 minutes between 9:00 and 23:00 GST.

How Charter Scheduling Terms and Pricing Structures Work

Hourly pricing for a 48 ft vessel runs from AED 680 to AED 792, and every price quoted is the final figure with VAT inside. Reserving your private slot requires a 30 % deposit paid via a secure payment link sent in chat; without this payment, the chosen time remains open for other guests. Deep-sea fishing expeditions can also be integrated into your trip, with rods, tackle and bait ready on board for AED 150. If sudden bad weather prevents safe sailing, guests can select a full refund or choose to move their booking to another date.

Flexible BYO Food Options and Onboard Dining Service

Every motor vessel rental lets your group manage meals freely throughout the journey along the coast. There is zero corkage fee, meaning guests can bring their own preferred snacks, soft drinks, and alcoholic beverages aboard without extra charges. For added convenience, formal dinner service can be served on board from AED 250 per guest upon request. Having your catch cooked on board costs AED 150 when arranged ahead of time through our chat manager. Should you wish to explore Dubai on a 52ft luxury yacht instead, broad culinary choices remain completely customizable across all size categories in the city.

Scenic Cruising Landmarks Visible Along Coastal Routes

Departing from Dubai Harbour or Dubai Marina positions your motor vessel near the city’s top coastal sights. Shorter trips head past JBR, Bluewaters Island, and the tall frame of Ain Dubai before returning along the main canal. Extending your charter gives the crew time to steer around Palm Jumeirah toward Atlantis The Palm and the sail-shaped silhouette of Burj Al Arab. Event customization and celebrations like birthday parties can be tailored directly along these scenic paths, creating an impressive background for photography while anchored near the outer crescent.
