A “ Dhow ” is a traditional wooden vessel that is common in the  Middle East  and has been used historically for a variety of purposes, primarily for trading.

Dhows are made in a variety of sizes and in the  UAE  have been most used for trade between UAE and Iran aswell as for  pearl diving .

Over the last decade the demand for dhows has gone down and has been replaced by more modern vessels.

Nonetheless, Dhows have played a cruicial role in the history and evolution of the gulf and are iconic as a mode of sea transportation.

In the last couple of decades, a lot of the ‘Dhows’ have been repurposed for tourism purposes, one of them being dhow cruise dinners.

A  Dhow Cruise Dubai Marina  is a nice concept. Read on.

In the 90’s, some entrepreneurs began converting the larger dhows that were traditionally used for trading into refurbished floating restaurants that would operate dinner cruises in the  Dubai Creek .

That segment has grown and over many years has evolved into a rather important and iconic type of tourist attraction in  Dubai .

Starting with only handful of Dhows in early 90’s the segment has grown into over 30 dhows in the Creek and 8 in Dubai Marina.

One the elements of the Dhow Cruise ‘culture’ has been to have live entertainment onboard in a variety of forms.

Originally, belly dancing was most common, but with time, Dubai Government has been eliminating this form of entertainment and has now been almost entirely replaced by ‘Tanura’ – a traditionally Turksih dance that is usually performed by a male dancer that is spinning in a flowing and elaborately decorated dress, creating a very interesting sight.

The dinner cruise in Dubai Marina as a concept began in 2010 with some operators bringing the dhow boats to Dubai Marina and operating floating restaurants. The Dhow Cruise Marina attraction began gaining momentum and popularity and currently is a household product among inbound tour operators in Dubai.

Today, the dinner cruise in Dubai Marina is considered to be a much more upscale option that any other area in Dubai.

DINNER ONBOARD A  DHOW CRUISE IN DUBAI MARINA

As always, with the opening of Dubai Marina as a new area and tourist destination, there was room for starting new  business  ventures.

Alexandra was one of the first boats that began its operations as far back as 2009.

Now there are around 7 boats that operate in Dubai Marina.

So what is the difference between a Dhow Cruise in Dubai Marina versus a Dhow Cruise in Dubai Creek?

Well, this  article  will give you a very detailed answer, but funadmentally – the main difference is location.

Dubai Creek is the old part of town, and Dubai Marina is a new area in Dubai.

Fundamentally, that is the only difference, and the difference then lies in the actual operators of each boats. There are many good boats in Dubai Creek and some in Dubai Marina.

It must be noted however that Dubai Marina has MUCH less boats 8 versus more than 25 in the Creek.

As a rule of thumb, the quality of operators in Dubai Marina on average is higher, due to the the higher parking fees and the need to compensate by attracting a higher quality clientele.

DINNER CRUISE DUBAI

A dinner cruise generally is a great combination of dinner and cruising, but a cruise dinner in Dubai Marina is a particular excellent fusion

Difference Between Dhow Cruise Marina and Dhow Cruise Creek

Dhow Cruise Marina is all about the latest and the most famous manmade canal and the tall skyscrapers along the canal. It is where the rich and famous of Dubai come for all their leisure activities. This cruise will take you on a round trip to the iconic coastline of Dubai Marina and the Blue Waters development before easing into the Arabian Sea for a short while. Dinner cruise Marina is a premium dinner cruise as it is also a time travel to how Dubai developed itself into the world's favorite tourist destination.

The Dhow cruise on the creek is a time travel backward when Dubai was a trading hub. Life was simple, with Dubai spread on either side of the Dubai creek. One side was called Bur Dubai; the other was called Deira Dubai. When you take a Dhow Cruise Dubai, you will sail through iconic old-world buildings like Dubai Souk, the Heritage Village, and the Maktoum Bridge, once known as Dubai's lifeline. You will also see old water taxis or Abras jostling with new water taxis. These water taxis ferry people across the old districts of Dubai.

Top things to do in Dubai

The city of Dubai has long enchanted the minds of individuals from all around the world. When one thinks of the City of Gold, the mind immediately jumps to a picture of extravagance and opulence; towering architectural marvels like the Burj Khalifa and Palm Islands, an endless of both the golden deserts and rich blue oceans, decadent food, and a glittering city full of life. 

Tourists from around the world flock towards Dubai each year to be a part of the city’s pulse. An out-of-the-ordinary way to explore its best parts is by going for a dhow cruise in Dubai. A dhow is a sturdily-designed wooden boat, traditionally used by Dubai’s fishing communities.

Today, a Dubai cruise is one of the most popular tourist attractions to try in the city; visitors can choose to ride along several locations -- Dubai Marina, Dubai Creek and Dubai Water Canal. Each cruise offers guests a unique experience, whether it’s the ambiance, famous sights around or delicious buffet meals and live entertainment. The next time you’re thinking to try something different, a Dubai dhow cruise should be high up your bucket list.  

Dubai Dhow Cruise Locations

Dubai Marina

The Dubai Marina is one of the most beautiful locations in the City of Gold. When on a Marina cruise in Dubai , prepare to feast your eyes on the eye-catching, towering skyscrapers around you, while you are serenaded by the bright blue ocean. Keep an eye out for architectural marvels like the Palm Islands, Burj Khalifa, Dubai Marina residences, JBR, the Atlantis Hotel and more. 

Dubai Creek

Explore the olden, charming parts of the city on a Dubai Creek cruise . The ambiance of still waters and traditional music is the perfect backdrop as you take in sights on the quieter side of the city. You’ll get the chance to observe landmarks like Heritage Village, National Bank of Dubai, Sheikh Saeed’s House and Chamber of Commerce & Industry Building among others.

Dubai Water Canal

Cruise along the Dubai Water Canal and take in the glittering landmarks in the city. While on a Canal cruise in Dubai , either on an Abra or a luxury cruise, you’ll sail along the Water Canal and get the opportunity to spot sites like Festival City, Business Bay, Burj Khalifa, Ras Al Khor Sanctuary along with an impressive view of the city’s spectacular skyline. 

All Your Dubai Dhow Cruise Options

There are a variety of factors to keep in mind before selecting which Dubai dhow cruise to go for. You can make your choice based on which location you would like to board from, what landmarks you would like to see, whether you’re looking for a dining experience, or are looking to club your cruise with other activities like a desert safari. Here are all the factors to keep in mind when decided what cruise to go for.

Creek vs Marina vs Canal

The most important thing to remember before making your reservation is the location of your dhow cruise. The top options in the city are the Dubai Creek, Dubai Marina and the Dubai Canal. If you’re looking to observe the city’s historic past and observe classic buildings like Heritage Village and old souks, you should look to book a dhow cruise on Dubai Creek. If you would like to soak in the city’s towering, architecturally-significant skyline, then you can opt for a Dubai Marina dhow cruise. If you book a Canal cruise in Dubai, you can either ride on the traditional Abra or go for a luxury cruise on the Water Canal. 

Sightseeing vs Dinner

The next thing to consider before booking your dhow cruise is to opt for a cruise that exclusively offers sightseeing or dinner. If you book a standard sightseeing cruise along the Creek, Marina or Canal, you can soak in landmarks around you like the Atlantis Hotel at the Dubai Marina. However, if you’re looking to make your ride a memorable experience, opt for a dinner cruise in Dubai at the Creek or Marina. The highlight of your wholesome journey will include an exclusive continental buffet, along with live entertainment options. Your standard sightseeing cruise does not include dinner; however, all dinner experiences allow you to engage in sightseeing.

Ferry vs Yacht vs Boat

Apart from dhow cruises along the Dubai Marina, Dubai Creek and Dubai Water Canal, guests also have the option to opt for rides on ferries, yachts and other boats.  If you opt for a ferry, a smaller water vehicle, you can enjoy a 1-hour long ride inside air-conditioned decks along the Dubai Marina and take in interesting sights like Palm Island, Burj Al Arab and JBR Beach. For an ultra-luxurious experience, book a Dubai yacht tour. Onboard a lavish yacht tour , guests can avail services like a continent buffet meal, the onboard swimming pool and multiple entertainment decks, all while enjoying a fantastic view of sights like the Palm.    

Combo Tours

If you’re in Dubai for a short while and are looking for a quick way to cover all major attractions, your best bet would be to opt for a combo tour. Usually covered over a span of two days, you can choose your combo ticket based on what attractions you would like to cover. Your combo tour not only includes a dhow cruise on Dubai Creek, but also includes experiences like a visit to landmarks like the Burj Khalifa, a desert safari in Dubai, or a tour of the city’s most historic and popular attractions. With these tours, you can cover all the essential tourist points in the city.

Choose the Right Dubai Dhow Cruise

Sightseeing

There’s plenty to see while on a Dubai dhow Cruise. You should select your cruise depending on which part of the city you would like to explore. Dubai cruises cover landmarks across the Dubai Creek, Dubai Marina, and Dubai Water Canal. While a cruise on the Creek covers several parts of old Dubai like the old souks, a cruise along the Marina lets you observe the new-age, architecturally-significant landmarks of the city, like the Burj Khalifa, JBR, Atlantis Hotel, and more.

When surrounded by the blue sea and towering glass buildings, the perfect thing to complement your view is a delicious meal. If you opt for a dinner cruise in Dubai, your experience would include welcome refreshments with some dates, a lavish continental buffet with both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options, unlimited mineral water and soft drinks, and depending on your package, live cooking stations as well. Keep in mind, not all cruises include meals; you would have to book one that specifically includes lunch/dinner.

Entertainment

If you opt for a dinner cruise in Dubai, not only do you get a delicious multi-course buffet meal, but also get live entertainment as part of the package. During your cruise along the Creek or Marina, while you gaze at the remarkable sights around, you will be serenaded with live music. The vocalist would perform some peppy tunes to keep the audience entertained. Guests would also be treated to experiences like a puppet show or Tanoura dance performance, depending on the package they opt for.

Dhow construction became an art form passed down through generations, with master shipbuilders meticulously crafting these vessels using traditional techniques and locally sourced timber.

Musandam Places To Visit

Things To Do In Musandam

``norway of arabia``.

Musandam is a “ PARADISE ON EARTH ”. Part of Oman, but surrounded by the UAE, it has a unique geography, culture and history that sets it apart from its Arabian neighbours. Jutting out into the narrow Strait of Hormuz, Musandam’s jagged coastline has earned it the nickname ‘Norway of Arabia’. While its fjords are indeed impressive, the expansive Musandam mountains are equally worthy of exploration. Hiking, snorkeling, diving, camping, off-roading, and relaxation opportunities abound. Whether you’re planning a weekend trip from Dubai, or a week long adventure, Musandam is the perfect place to immerse yourself in nature and traditional Omani culture.

Khasab is the regional capital of the Musandam Governorate, and the majority of things to see and do in Musandam are around this northern area. Dibba (Daba) Al-Baya is a smaller province, located in the south of Musandam. While the two regions are technically connected via a mountain road, only Omanis are permitted access, making it impossible to drive between them without having to exit Oman and re-enter via the UAE. Additionally, Madha is part of Musandam, but is enclaved by the UAE. For these reasons, most people focus on just one region, with the Khasab area offering the best variety of things to see and do in Musandam.
