A dhow is a traditional Arabic sailing boat with triangular sails and a unique hull design, used for fishing and pearl trading in the olden days. Now, you can enjoy a cruise aboard a modernised dhow on the Dubai Creek or Dubai Marina. The cruises come with dinner and Tanoura dance performances, so you’ll have a sailing, dining and entertaining evening all in one.
Dhow cruises in Dubai are normally scheduled in the evening, starting from 7PM up to 10PM. The dining and entertainment will take place indoors, which will be good all year around. If you want to enjoy the outdoor experience as well, the best time to go would be from October till April.
