Imagine sailing into a sunset, mooring your vessel, and stepping straight into a MICHELIN-worthy dining experience. Yes, it’s that magical.
Why It’s a Game-Changer:
- Free moorage at participating marinas

- Unified regulations for a hassle-free experience across the city
Sheikh Dr. Saeed bin Ahmed bin Khalifa Al Maktoum, CEO of DMA, hailed the initiative as a bold leap forward in Dubai’s maritime evolution, blending visionary leadership with seamless service.
With over 4,000 berths ready to welcome everything from pleasure boats to superyachts, Dubai is clearly steering full speed ahead toward global yachting supremacy.
