Dubai offers unlimited entertainment to the visitor and is viewed as an upcoming tourist destination amongst all over the world. There are world class facilities in adventure sports, shopping, sightseeing, desert safari and a lot more that can be explored. All this is a wonderful blend of the traditional with the modern. Under all the modern trappings a glimpse of the traditional way of life still exists in Dubai and in many other parts of the UAE. Dubai started out as a small fishing village and with its 49 miles of natural coastline trading by the sea and fishing were the occupations until the so called liquid gold ‘oil’ was discovered. Water sports are a huge attraction with jet skiing, yachting, speed boating and just cruising being very popular amongst the many other options available for adventure and recreational activities. The calm and serene blue waters surrounding Dubai are well known for great sailing among the enthusiasts.

The traditional boats used for fishing are called Dhows and the special feature of these boats is that they are completely handmade. These are still in use today for local fishing and as a local ferry. A visitor to Dubai can experience a Dhow cruise by crossing the ferry on the creek that bisects Dubai into two. This ferry is the best way to experience how the locals travel daily. Another great way to experience a Dhow Cruise is with a dinner cruise on a dhow. The tourism authorities in Dubai have cleverly made use of the traditional look of the Dhow to convert it into an unforgettable experience i.e.dinner cruise. This dinner cruise on a Dhow starts in the evening and goes slowly around the coast of Dubai allowing the tourist to view the exorbitantly beautiful Dubai at night. There is a traditional Arabic dinner served with the best of local dishes on offer to give you the best Arabic serving you ever had.

This Dinner Cruise Dubai can be enjoyed as part of a group with other tourists or you can book a whole dhow for your family and friends. This dhow cruise is a must do in Dubai!
