Direct Operators of Every Charter
Nautidhow runs charters directly for private celebrations, birthday events and leisure trips across Dubai waters. Operating daily from 9:00 to 23:00 GST, our team handles bookings straight through WhatsApp without intermediate agencies. Every charter includes a licensed captain, professional crew, fuel, marine insurance, soft drinks, ice, towels and life jackets. Guests can bring their own food and alcoholic beverages without paying corkage fees. Additional services, including custom catering, decorators, sound equipment, DJ setups and water sports equipment, are arranged on request to prepare each vessel before departure.
Fleet Specifications and Capacity Range
Our fleet consists of 88 yachts and boats, ranging from 33 feet to 164 feet in length. Hourly rental rates start at 600 AED and go up to 18,900 AED, depending on the chosen vessel size and specifications. The maximum guest capacity across our vessels reaches 90 guests. All quoted prices include VAT. To confirm a booking, a 30 per cent deposit is required; we do not hold dates without this deposit. If bad weather prevents sailing, guests choose between transferring the booking to a new date or receiving a full refund.
Departure Marinas in Dubai
Vessels in our fleet depart from two primary locations: Dubai Marina and Dubai Harbour. The specific departure pier is confirmed in the chat when you select your boat. No passport or ID is needed to board our vessels. Our captains and crew handle all vessel preparation, safety briefings and navigation on the water, allowing guests to board directly upon arrival at the designated berth. Detailed walking directions and berth numbers are provided in the WhatsApp chat once your deposit payment is confirmed.
How We Communicate and Process Bookings
We handle all customer inquiries and reservations through the WhatsApp button on our website. Our team responds within 15 minutes between 9:00 and 23:00 GST every day. Dates are confirmed immediately upon receipt of the 30 per cent deposit. We assist with choosing the right boat size, planning routes and coordinating add-on options such as live music, photography, car transfers or jet skis. If weather conditions prevent departure, we agree a new date in the chat or process a refund based on your preference.
