Dhow Cruise Dinner — Dubai Marina

A traditional wooden dhow, reworked as a floating restaurant, gliding past the Dubai Marina skyline at sunset — this is one of the simplest, most reliably enjoyable evenings we run. Two hours, one boat, no logistics to think about.

Dinner is an international live buffet served on board, with a live Tanoura dance show adding some spectacle to the meal. Sit on the air-conditioned lower deck or head up top for open-air photos of the Marina towers lit up after dark.
