Staying at JBR or along The Walk? You can board a Dubai Marina dhow cruise within minutes of your hotel. The Marina boarding points sit just across the water from JBR, so guests at beach hotels reach the pier faster than from almost anywhere else in the city. Dinner cruises sail 8:30 PM to 10:30 PM and sunset cruises sail 5:30 PM to 6:30 PM.
JBR is the most convenient base for a dhow cruise if your trip revolves around the beach. Spend the afternoon on JBR beach or walking The Walk, then head to the Marina for an evening on the water. The cruise route itself sails right past the JBR shoreline, so you will see your own hotel and the beachfront from the upper deck, followed by close views of Ain Dubai on Bluewaters Island.
Boarding options from JBR
There are two easy ways to join the cruise from JBR. You can walk or take the Dubai Tram one stop to the Marina Mall Pier 7 boarding point, which takes about 10 to 15 minutes door to deck. Or you can book a hotel transfer and be picked up directly from your JBR hotel lobby between 6:30 PM and 7:00 PM, with drop back by about 11:00 PM to 11:30 PM. Shared transfers cost AED 150 per person for the round trip, and a private car for up to 6 guests costs AED 350.
What you will see from the water
- JBR beachfront — the full sweep of The Walk, lit up at night
- Ain Dubai — the giant observation wheel on Bluewaters, closest on this route
- Marina skyline — Cayan Tower and the canal towers from the open water
- Palm Jumeirah — a distant glimpse of the Atlantis silhouette
The sunset cruise is especially popular with JBR guests because the sun drops right behind the Ain Dubai wheel. Boarding is at 5:00 PM near the Marina, and the one-hour sailing from 5:30 PM to 6:30 PM gets you back in time for dinner on The Walk.
Dinner cruise pricing is AED 79 per adult and AED 40 per child, with children under 3 sailing free. The onboard buffet includes a live BBQ station, and vegetarian options are available on request.
