How to Charter a Yacht in Dubai
A private yacht charter in Dubai gives you a boat, a crew and a departure from one of the city’s marinas, for an afternoon, a sunset or a night out. This guide covers the decisions to make before you book, and how an XTASEA charter works from first message to departure.
Choose the yacht by group size
Start with the number of guests. XTASEA’s fleet runs from 140 ft yachts that suit small groups to 35 ft yachts with room for larger parties. Each yacht page lists its length, guest capacity, bedrooms and crew, so you can compare them side by side on the fleet page.
Pick your departure marina
Yachts leave from Dubai Harbour Marina or Dubai Marina. The marina is listed on every yacht page. If you have a preferred location, filter the fleet by marina first, then choose the yacht that fits your group.
Plan the occasion
Tell us what the day is for. Birthdays, anniversaries, private proposals, corporate hospitality, golden hour cruises and New Year’s Eve celebrations are all booked through the same WhatsApp conversation. For each occasion we can help plan the timing and the itinerary.
