Middle East

Ultra-modern, sun-soaked and effortlessly glamorous. Winter yachting at its most accessible.

The Middle East offers world-class luxury yacht charters in a dramatically modern setting. Dubai and Abu Dhabi combine stunning skyline cruising, rich desert culture, and pristine, yet effortlessly accessible, Gulf waters.

Ideal for short luxury charters, corporate events, and lifestyle-led itineraries, the region delivers consistently warm weather, calm conditions, and a stunning blend of ultramodern architecture and Arabian hospitality. Whether you're anchoring near the Burj Al Arab or exploring hidden mangrove creeks, the Gulf is a playground for sophisticated yachting.
