You get to enjoy the cool sea breeze, your favorite music, and the company of your chosen guests without any of the usual city stress.

We take care of everything, from the moment you step aboard until the final toast. Our captains know exactly where to position the boat for the best angles, and the crew is there to ensure your glass is never empty. With transparent packages that cover fuel and port fees, you can relax knowing the logistics are handled professionally.

Common Questions

Everything You Need to Know

Here are answers to the most frequent queries about our New Year's Eve charters.

Honestly, the sooner the better. Most prime vessels and optimal time slots are snapped up by late October. Booking early guarantees you get the boat layout you want and avoids the last-minute price surges. Once you pay the deposit, your spot is locked in.

The rate includes the yacht rental, a licensed captain and crew, fuel for the designated route, ice, water, and soft drinks. You also get use of the sound system. Things like food, DJ services, or specific decorations are extras we can arrange for you.

Absolutely. Our captains navigate to specific holding zones approved by the authorities. These spots are chosen specifically to give you an unobstructed view of the displays at Atlantis or the Burj Al Arab, keeping you safe and away from the crushing crowds on land.

Yes, it's a very family-friendly environment. We provide life jackets for everyone, including little ones. The crew gives a full safety briefing before we leave the dock. Many families prefer the yacht because it's a controlled, private space away from the street chaos.
