Luxury yacht rental and holiday destinations Dubai Marina today? By incorporating Yacht Management Service to our activity our two main objectives are ensuring charter and private yacht owners the peace of mind around the legal and administrative tasks that correspond to each navigation area and for the use given to the yacht, at the same time as maintaining the technical and aesthetic condition of your boat. Without a professional follow up of these tasks, you take the risk of not being able to enjoy your day of leisure due to some big or small reason; and Charter&Dreams offer to carry this follow up to contribute to the enjoyment of your private yacht or to the profit margin of your charter yacht.

Sailing tip of the day: The plotter’s track function can help you in tight harbors! It’s fun to look back over a summer’s cruising by way of the track my chartplotter has recorded. Where the track really comes into its own, though, is piloting out of a difficult harbor into which you have successfully maneuvered. You know you got in OK, so to be sure of a graceful exit—tide permitting where appropriate—you’ve only to follow the same track out again. Be warned, though, that this works only so long as the plotter is set upright. The screengrab shows two versions of the same in-and-out tracks on my Raymarine unit. The coarse setting shown in purple is useless, while the finer, black version leads me straight back out through the drying banks. It’s all down to setting the instrument to record frequent data. In short, to succeed in close quarters, the plot should be set to record at shorter time or distance intervals than out at sea.

The Bastakia Quarter (also known as the Al-Fahidi neighborhood) was built in the late 19th century to be the home of wealthy Persian merchants who dealt mainly in pearls and textiles and were lured to Dubai because of the tax-free trading and access to Dubai Creek. Bastakia occupies the eastern portion of Bur Dubai along the creek, and the coral and limestone buildings here, many with walls topped with wind-towers, have been excellently preserved. Wind-towers provided the homes here with an early form of air conditioning — the wind trapped in the towers was funneled down into the houses. Persian merchants likely transplanted this architectural element (common in Iranian coastal houses) from their home country to the Gulf. Lined with distinct Arabian architecture, the narrow lanes are highly evocative of a bygone, and much slower, age in Dubai’s history. Inside the district, you’ll find the Majlis Gallery, with its collection of traditional Arab ceramics and furniture (housed in a wind-tower) and the Al Serkal Cultural Foundation, with a shop, cafe, and rotating art exhibitions (located in one of the historic buildings)

How about an adrenaline-pumping ride through the desert dunes? Then sign up for the desert safari and enjoy the quad biking, belly dance, henna design, and camel ride. A ride in the dunes is a mandatory touristy thing to do when you are in Dubai. You can book the private desert safari with Sabsan Holidays because we promise you the best service at affordable rates. The desert safari will start with a rollercoaster ride through the dunes, which will stop at one point to take photographs. Depending upon the type of desert safari, you will have the stop. For example, if you are taking evening night safari, you will be stopped at a point to watch the sunset. Later on, you will be transferred to the campsite where you will witness the desert life led by traditional people. Though the campground is traditional in outlook, it is completely equipped with advanced facilities, including electricity, washrooms, and telephones.

Low season typically refers to any time outside of the high season periods. Groups of families and friends looking for a relaxing luxury vacation are advised to avoid high season weeks and opt for weeks outside of this time. The busiest periods are of course reflected in the charter costs and can be up to 15 to 30 percent more expensive than typical low season periods. Chartering a few weeks either side of these busy periods can be almost exactly the same, with the weather almost unchanged in some places, with far less crowds. Before you book a charter, your charter broker can provide you with a good estimate of the additional costs that will be incurred. Food is one of the largest and it is directly proportional to how exuberantly you plan to dine. If you expect several bottles of Cristal champagne with every meal, then you can assume that your costs will be higher.
