The Xclusive Yachts speedboat tour departs from Dubai Marina, a spectacular waterway lined with high-rise buildings and a range of yachts both super and small. The beginning of the tour starts with a slow cruise through the busy waterways, before Jumeirah Beach Residence spans in front of the boat. You’ll see the Ain Wheel on your left, and an impressive cityscape on your right

From here, you’ll feel the full speed of the RIB speedboat, bumping across the waves at up to 30 knots along the edges of the Palm Jumeirah to the tour’s first landmark: Atlantis The Palm. There will be a photo opportunity here, as your captain shares insights into this unique hotel.

That’s not the last of the world class hotels though! A stop at the Burj Al Arab is next on the itinerary, a 7 star, sail-shaped landmark as an ode to the country’s maritime heritage. Be sure to keep your phone at the ready, as this is another incredible photo opportunity.

From here, your speedboat will pick up the pace, and the breeze of the coast will take the edge off any heat you’re feeling! Sit back and enjoy the ride, as the boat heads towards Dubai Harbour to take a slow cruise back into the Marina for docking.

The Xclusive Yachts Speedboat Tour takes approximately 90 minutes, setting sail from Dubai Marina. Full instructions about how to reach the docking point are provided on the Xclusive Yachts website.
