DMA and DET to strengthen Dubai's status as prime yachting destination

The Dubai Maritime Authority (DMA) at the Ports, Customs and Free Zone Corporation and the Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism (DET) have launched an innovative Dock & Dine initiative, in a strategic move to enhance short-stay yachting visits, further reinforce the city's position as a global yachting destination, and put the city at the forefront of the global trend of seamless waterfront dining.

Encompassing 20 of the top marinas and marine stations in the city, the initiative represents the most comprehensive marina dining concept in the region and directly advances the ambitious goals of the Dubai Economic Agenda, D33, to further consolidate Dubai's position as a leading global destination for business and leisure.

Dock & Dine is tailored for those seeking to dock for a short stay and enjoy the finest waterfront dining experiences, and enables yacht owners, crews, and guests to access a curated selection of restaurants, luxury hotels, cultural attractions and entertainment directly from the city's marinas.

Guests can sail to different docks and restaurants, enjoying a diverse range of excellent cuisines served in beautiful settings - all within a convenient 45-minute to one-hour radius from each other.
