At YRD Yachts, you are not just renting a boat; you are booking a personalized service. Our crew is the heart of your experience.
Professional Captains with Local Expertise
Our Captains are fully certified by the UAE Maritime Authority and boast years of sailing experience in the Arabian Gulf.

Essential Charter Questions Answered
We know you have questions before booking. Here are the most common details about our charters, designed to give you peace of mind.
Absolutely! Unlike many operators, we allow you to bring your own catering, snacks, and any beverages you prefer, including alcohol. We provide ice and storage space to keep everything chilled, so you can enjoy your own selection without extra fees.
All our 40ft yacht charters depart from a premium berth within the Dubai Harbour Marina. The exact pier number and a clear map with parking instructions are shared with you via WhatsApp immediately after your booking is confirmed. This ensures a quick, stress-free boarding process.
We highly recommend booking for a minimum of 3 or 4 hours if swimming is a priority. This allows enough time to comfortably cruise past the main sights (like Atlantis and Burj Al Arab) and still anchor at a designated, calm swimming spot near JBR or the Lagoon for a decent amount of time before cruising back.
