Clear Hourly Pricing for Private Charters

Charter rates for a power catamaran in Dubai range from AED 1,600 to AED 4,000 per hour depending on which of our 55-60 ft vessels you select. Every rate already includes VAT, fuel for standard routes, and full crew service, ensuring no hidden extras appear on your bill.

Securing your date requires a 30 % deposit via an online payment card link once agreed with our chat manager. If you wish to combine open-deck leisure with trolling, our team coordinates a luxury fishing yacht rental in Dubai alongside our twin-hull motor vessels. Should rough sea conditions ever prevent sailing, we issue a prompt refund or reschedule your voyage.

What Group Capacity Does Each Vessel Accommodate?

Selecting the right catamaran in Dubai depends on your total group size and planned entertainment. Our featured fleet models range from 55-60 ft, providing spacious twin-hull stability that minimizes rolling motions compared to traditional monohulls, with our largest capacity reaching 45 guests across expansive indoor lounges and open flybridges.

These platforms are ideal for birthday parties, corporate gatherings, or relaxed family days at sea. Air conditioning keeps salon areas cool, while exterior sunbeds let people bask in the sun. We present 5 suitable boats from our broader collection of 88 vessels, ensuring plenty of space for every invited friend.

Which Inclusions and Amenities Await on Deck?

Every private catamaran in Dubai comes prepared with cold drinking water, ice chests, sound systems, dining seating, and shaded lounges. Guests may bring their own food or favorite beverages without any corkage fee, or request tailored barbecue catering and celebration cakes arranged directly by our manager.

Turnkey services can be prepared prior to departure, such as full boat decorations starting from AED 350 or a professional photographer from AED 500 per hour. When guests wish to join a sailing catamaran group trip elsewhere, we clarify that our fleet features exclusively private, motor-powered twin hulls rather than shared ticketed boats or canvas-driven vessels.

Cruise Duration Shapes Your Coastal Voyage

Trip lengths determine your sights when chartering a motor catamaran in Dubai. A standard two-hour voyage skirts around Bluewaters Island, Ain Dubai, and the JBR beachfront before returning smoothly to the marina. This timeline provides excellent skyline vistas without venturing far into open water.

Booking three or four hours lets our captain navigate around the Palm Jumeirah crescent toward Atlantis and Burj Al Arab. Extended outings allow dedicated time to drop anchor for swimming in calm waters or enjoying water toys like jet skis and seabobs. Boarding takes place at Dubai Harbour without requiring passport or identity inspections.

Key questions answered

What Are the Hourly Rates for Catamaran Rentals?

Private catamaran charters cost between AED 1,600 and AED 4,000 per hour across our 55-60 ft fleet. This hourly rate includes VAT, fuel, and crew. You can secure your reservation with a 30 % deposit paid via card link.

How does a twin-hull boat differ from a regular monohull?

Catamarans feature two separate hulls spaced apart, delivering superior lateral stability and significantly wider deck areas than monohulls. All our vessels are motor-driven power catamarans, offering steady cruising, spacious indoor salons, and expansive exterior lounging zones for gatherings.

What standard equipment and supplies are provided on board?

Every charter includes ice, drinking water, sound systems, sunbeds, and crew assistance. There is no corkage fee for bringing your own snacks and beverages. Add-on services like floral arrangements from AED 400 or fishing gear for AED 150 are arranged upon request.

Is it possible to book a short trip of two or three hours?

Yes, two-hour and three-hour bookings are common options. A two-hour trip showcases nearshore sights like Ain Dubai, while reserving three hours provides ample time to glide past Palm Jumeirah and pause for photos near the iconic Burj Al Arab.

Are catamarans suitable for hosting business functions or private celebrations?

Yes, our wide twin-hull decks are well suited for events, holding up to 45 guests. We can coordinate live music, catering, sound equipment for speeches, and custom decorations starting from AED 350 to suit your specific party or corporate agenda.

May our group select the sailing route and pause for a swim?

Yes, the skipper can tailor your route within the booked timeframe. Charters lasting three hours or longer can easily incorporate an anchor drop in calm, sheltered lagoons where guests can take a dip or enjoy arranged water toys.

Can young kids come along and is safety gear stocked on deck?

Children of all ages are welcome on board every private voyage. The vessel carries standard marine safety vests for all guests. The steady twin hulls provide a remarkably flat, stable cruising experience that families appreciate.

Which major shoreline sights will we pass during our trip?

Depending on your charter duration from Dubai Harbour, routes take you past Ain Dubai, Bluewaters Island, JBR, Palm Jumeirah, and Atlantis. Charters spanning three or four hours reach the waters fronting Burj Al Arab for clear coastal photos.

What are self-drive electric catamarans and how do they work?

A self-drive electric catamaran is an uncrewed, compact watercraft powered by battery motors, designed for slow, calm-water outings inside quiet marina basins. In contrast, our crewed charter fleet features larger power catamarans built for coastal voyages.
