Difference Between Dhow Cruise Marina and Dhow Cruise Creek

Dubai offers different dinner cruise experiences. The most famous are the Marina Cruise and Dubai Creek Cruise. The Marina Cruise takes you into the ultra-modern world, while the Creek Cruise offers cultural immersion, taking you to Dubai's heritage

The Dubai Marina Cruise offers an exclusive experience, a privilege to witness the latest and most famous manmade canal and towering skyscrapers. It's a leisure hub for the elite of Dubai. This premium dinner cruise takes you on a round trip to the iconic coastline of Dubai Marina and the Blue Waters development before venturing into the Arabian Sea for a brief period. It's not just a dinner cruise; it's a journey through time that witnesses how Dubai evolved into the world's favorite tourist destination.

The Dhow cruise on the creek is not just a journey, it's a cultural immersion. Step back in time when Dubai was a bustling trading hub. Life was simple, with Dubai stretching on either side of the Dubai creek. One side was known as Bur Dubai; the other was called Deira Dubai. When you embark on the Dhow cruise, you sail past iconic old-world buildings like Dubai Souk, the Heritage Village, and the Maktoum Bridge, once the lifeline of Dubai. You'll also spot old water taxis or Abras mingling with new ones, ferrying people across the old districts of Dubai. Dhow Cruise Dubai Creek is a budget-friendly option, perfect for a family outing, yet it's a cultural immersion like no other.

Dhow Cruise Marina Experience

Prepare for an exhilarating journey aboard the Dhow Cruise Marina, where your senses will be treated to captivating sights, exceptional hospitality, delectable dinner options, and scintillating entertainment. The Dinner Cruise Marina commences as you enter our traditional Dhow, greeted by our warm hosts. As the dhow sets sail, you'll be treated to a 360-degree view of the majestic Dubai Marina district. The marina cruise will pass through the much talked about graceful 180-degree arching of the Cayan Towers. As the evening progresses, your dhow cruise will provide ample selfie opportunities, so make sure your mobile phone is fully charged! Next, you'll encounter the world-famous, bustling Bluewater development and the colossal Ain Dubai, the world's highest observatory wheel, adding to the excitement of your journey.

As for your taste buds, they are in for a treat, with the sumptuous buffet dinner offering an array of options for vegetarians and non-vegetarians. Your culinary journey is accompanied by various music arranged by our onboard DJ, who picks the right music for the right mood. Further on, our Tanura dancer comes on the lower deck to entertain you with his energetic performance. As our Dhow enters the main Arabian Sea, you will see the Atlantis Hotel on the Palm Dubai. Far away, you may also see the towering Burj Al Arab hotel. After a mesmerizing 2-hour cruise, your memorable trip ends, yet the experience leaves you craving more!

Dhow Cruise Dubai Creek Experience

Experience the enchanting allure of a dhow cruise on the Dubai Creek. As you embark on this journey, you will immerse yourself in the rich tapestry of the city's history and heritage. The tranquil waters of Dubai Creek act as a reflective canvas, mirroring the skyline of modern Dubai and the timeless charm of its historical sites.

Step aboard a traditional wooden dhow, where Arabian hospitality awaits you. Set against the Dubai Creek backdrop, you will be ushered in with fresh juices or Arabic coffee. You would see historical architecture on either side of the creek as the cruise sails. Your selfie time never ends during the creek cruise. Your Dhow passes through landmarks of yore like the Heritage Village, Sheik Maktoum Bridge, and the Sheika Palace. One fresh icon of this trip is the newly opened Infinity Bridge on the Arabian Gulf that connects the old Deira area with Bur Dubai and Jumeirah. Your dinner is buffet style and is accompanied by our in-house music. One of the unique experiences will be to see Abra (local water taxi) darting across Dubai Creek. The Tanura dance is the last but the most entertaining set we offer. As the 2-hour creek cruise ends, you will be left with lingering memories captured through selfies and videos!

Tourists from around the world flock towards Dubai each year to be a part of the city’s pulse. An out-of-the-ordinary way to explore its best parts is by going for a dhow cruise in Dubai. A dhow is a sturdily-designed wooden boat, traditionally used by Dubai’s fishing communities.

Today, a Dubai cruise is one of the most popular tourist attractions to try in the city; visitors can choose to ride along several locations -- Dubai Marina, Dubai Creek and Dubai Water Canal. Each cruise offers guests a unique experience, whether it’s the ambiance, famous sights around or delicious buffet meals and live entertainment. The next time you’re thinking to try something different, a Dubai dhow cruise should be high up your bucket list.  

Dubai Dhow Cruise Locations

Dubai Marina

The Dubai Marina is one of the most beautiful locations in the City of Gold. When on a Marina cruise in Dubai , prepare to feast your eyes on the eye-catching, towering skyscrapers around you, while you are serenaded by the bright blue ocean. Keep an eye out for architectural marvels like the Palm Islands, Burj Khalifa, Dubai Marina residences, JBR, the Atlantis Hotel and more. 

Dubai Creek

Explore the olden, charming parts of the city on a Dubai Creek cruise . The ambiance of still waters and traditional music is the perfect backdrop as you take in sights on the quieter side of the city. You’ll get the chance to observe landmarks like Heritage Village, National Bank of Dubai, Sheikh Saeed’s House and Chamber of Commerce & Industry Building among others.

Dubai Water Canal

Cruise along the Dubai Water Canal and take in the glittering landmarks in the city. While on a Canal cruise in Dubai , either on an Abra or a luxury cruise, you’ll sail along the Water Canal and get the opportunity to spot sites like Festival City, Business Bay, Burj Khalifa, Ras Al Khor Sanctuary along with an impressive view of the city’s spectacular skyline. 

All Your Dubai Dhow Cruise Options

There are a variety of factors to keep in mind before selecting which Dubai dhow cruise to go for. You can make your choice based on which location you would like to board from, what landmarks you would like to see, whether you’re looking for a dining experience, or are looking to club your cruise with other activities like a desert safari. Here are all the factors to keep in mind when decided what cruise to go for.

Creek vs Marina vs Canal

The most important thing to remember before making your reservation is the location of your dhow cruise. The top options in the city are the Dubai Creek, Dubai Marina and the Dubai Canal. If you’re looking to observe the city’s historic past and observe classic buildings like Heritage Village and old souks, you should look to book a dhow cruise on Dubai Creek. If you would like to soak in the city’s towering, architecturally-significant skyline, then you can opt for a Dubai Marina dhow cruise. If you book a Canal cruise in Dubai, you can either ride on the traditional Abra or go for a luxury cruise on the Water Canal. 

Sightseeing vs Dinner

The next thing to consider before booking your dhow cruise is to opt for a cruise that exclusively offers sightseeing or dinner. If you book a standard sightseeing cruise along the Creek, Marina or Canal, you can soak in landmarks around you like the Atlantis Hotel at the Dubai Marina. However, if you’re looking to make your ride a memorable experience, opt for a dinner cruise in Dubai at the Creek or Marina. The highlight of your wholesome journey will include an exclusive continental buffet, along with live entertainment options. Your standard sightseeing cruise does not include dinner; however, all dinner experiences allow you to engage in sightseeing.

Ferry vs Yacht vs Boat

Apart from dhow cruises along the Dubai Marina, Dubai Creek and Dubai Water Canal, guests also have the option to opt for rides on ferries, yachts and other boats.  If you opt for a ferry, a smaller water vehicle, you can enjoy a 1-hour long ride inside air-conditioned decks along the Dubai Marina and take in interesting sights like Palm Island, Burj Al Arab and JBR Beach. For an ultra-luxurious experience, book a Dubai yacht tour. Onboard a lavish yacht tour , guests can avail services like a continent buffet meal, the onboard swimming pool and multiple entertainment decks, all while enjoying a fantastic view of sights like the Palm.    

Combo Tours

If you’re in Dubai for a short while and are looking for a quick way to cover all major attractions, your best bet would be to opt for a combo tour. Usually covered over a span of two days, you can choose your combo ticket based on what attractions you would like to cover. Your combo tour not only includes a dhow cruise on Dubai Creek, but also includes experiences like a visit to landmarks like the Burj Khalifa, a desert safari in Dubai, or a tour of the city’s most historic and popular attractions. With these tours, you can cover all the essential tourist points in the city.

Choose the Right Dubai Dhow Cruise

Sightseeing

There’s plenty to see while on a Dubai dhow Cruise. You should select your cruise depending on which part of the city you would like to explore. Dubai cruises cover landmarks across the Dubai Creek, Dubai Marina, and Dubai Water Canal. While a cruise on the Creek covers several parts of old Dubai like the old souks, a cruise along the Marina lets you observe the new-age, architecturally-significant landmarks of the city, like the Burj Khalifa, JBR, Atlantis Hotel, and more.

When surrounded by the blue sea and towering glass buildings, the perfect thing to complement your view is a delicious meal. If you opt for a dinner cruise in Dubai, your experience would include welcome refreshments with some dates, a lavish continental buffet with both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options, unlimited mineral water and soft drinks, and depending on your package, live cooking stations as well. Keep in mind, not all cruises include meals; you would have to book one that specifically includes lunch/dinner.

Entertainment

If you opt for a dinner cruise in Dubai, not only do you get a delicious multi-course buffet meal, but also get live entertainment as part of the package. During your cruise along the Creek or Marina, while you gaze at the remarkable sights around, you will be serenaded with live music. The vocalist would perform some peppy tunes to keep the audience entertained. Guests would also be treated to experiences like a puppet show or Tanoura dance performance, depending on the package they opt for.

There is a significant focus on tourism; everything is shiny and new. Take the classy Dubai Marina. This artificial canal city is built along a two-mile stretch of the Persian Gulf shoreline and offers many activities that will thrill tourists.

A dhow cruise on the Marina is just the thing to unwind after some serious shopping or sky-diving. Dhows are traditional boats used for fishing and pearl farming in Dubai’s pre-oil era .

They are made of wood, have one or two masts, and typically have a long, thin hull. Your holiday break starts here. Have fun with the planning! Travelers recommended the cruises below.

How to Pick the Best Dhow Cruise in Dubai

Things to do in Dubai Cruises in Dubai Dhow Cruise Dhow Cruise In Dubai

The gleaming sand dunes and high-rises that now mark the grandeur of Dubai make its origin as a small fishing village a little hard to believe. For centuries, the warm and shallow waters of the Dubai Creek supported the local pearl and fishing industries. An integral part of this ancient Arab world was the dhow. Dhows are traditional wooden boats that were masterfully designed and built by the local fishing communities and used for navigating the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean. Today, these dhows have evolved from being small sailing boats to fine examples of luxury cruises. To visit the city and not go for a dhow cruise in Dubai is almost blasphemy. In this guide, we will look at how to go about selecting a dhow cruise, compare the various options we have and finally help you find a Dubai dhow cruise that suits you best.

Where can I go for a Dhow Cruise in Dubai?

Dhow cruises in Dubai are held primarily in the Dubai Creek or Dubai Marina . Sailing along the Dubai Creek will take you back in time as you pass the ancient Souks and witness pearl diving while a trip down Dubai Marina will leave you wide-eyed as you pass through sites like the famous Palm Jumeirah and Burj Al Arab in the Venetian style canal district. The wooden dhow cruises sailing through the two routes offer distinct experiences.

• Dubai Creek
• Dubai Marina

If you are onboard a cruise in Dubai Creek , be ready to get engulfed in the history of the desert city. On either side of the creek, its oldest districts Deira and Bur Dubai stretch out in all their glory. During the hours you spend cruising here, you will witness the timeless hubbub of the gold and spice souks, pass by the heritage village, Rolex Twin Towers, Sheikh Saeed’s house, and National Bank of Dubai among other attractions.

In stark contrast to dhow cruises in the Dubai Creek, reserving a seat on one of the Dubai Marina dhow cruises is a chance for you to get bedazzled by the glittering modernity of new Dubai a.k.a. Dubai Marina. The entire canal is lined by some of the most modern highrises in the city. The architectural wonders like Burj Al Arab, Hotel Atlantis, and Palm Jumeirah that dot this part of the Gulf shoreline are a testament to Dubai's shimmering modernity.

How do I choose between a Dubai Creek and Dubai Marina Cruise?

Though a dhow cruise in either the Creek or Dubai Marina would be a wonderfully unique Emirati experience, they have their own differences and visitors to Dubai often find themselves in a dilemma when it comes to choosing a cruise between the 2 locations. Let us take a look at what differentiates these cruises.

Sights Covered

Although cruising the Dubai Creek and visiting the older part of town has its own charm, the sights can be limited. While the Deira side of the creek has a few landmark buildings such as the Sheraton or the Dubai Municipality building, the Bur Dubai side of the creek is dominated by a promenade before opening up to the old Bastakiya Quarter, traditional souks and the Heritage Village further up the creek.

On the other hand, Dubai Marina is a fairly modern construction and the skyscrapers surrounding it have a large variety of architectural elements within them. The Marina is also flanked by a promenade on both banks with people going on walks or sitting down in outdoor cafes & restaurants. Passing under bridges as they carry cars and trams across the Marina is also a unique experience.

A cruise down Dubai Marina matches the image you've come to expect of Dubai more than the Dubai Creek does. Though there are prominent buildings on the banks of the creek, these are neither new or old and some visitors may find them underwhelming. Whereas in the Dubai Marina, you will be surrounded by buildings defined by the most modern skyscraper architecture principles. The environment in Dubai Marina is also relaxed and one of leisure while the Dubai Creek has a routine feel, with a heavy commercial traffic.

With regards to the boats, the wooden structure of the dhows can now be found equipped with facilities like 360-degree glass walls, dining spaces, entertainment and recreation units. These ships that were once used as the primary mode of transportation and trade, have now become an anchor between the past and present.

Being fairly modern; the quality of the overall cruise - vessel standard, sightseeing, dinner and entertainment - in Dubai Marina is observably better than a cruise in Dubai Creek. Though the creek has many high quality dhow operators, the sheer large number of operators in the region ensures that a fair number of cruises are "okay" in standard. On the other hand, the competition for operators in Dubai Marina is strict, ensuring a higher quality in the process.

What is the Best Time to go for a Dhow Cruise in Dubai?

Dhow cruises sail throughout the day, and offer either sightseeing or luxury dining opportunities. Depending upon what you would like to experience, you can opt for day-time cruises which are geared for sightseeing or go for cruises later in the evening that are popular for dinner and onboard entertainment.

To be on a cruise during sunset or after the city is blanketed under a moonlit night sky can be a magical experience. Dubai Dhow Cruises gliding along the beautiful setting of Dubai Creek or the Marina offer a different experience at different times of the day. If you are looking to see the intricacy of the architectural marvels, an early morning or an afternoon cruise may be a good idea for you. But avoid being on an open deck during the sunny hours of the day.

What are the Dinner and Entertainment Options on these Dhow Cruises?

Dinner cruises on the Dubai Creek and Dubai Marina are famous for providing one of the most unique culinary experiences in Dubai. Mixing a dining experience with a unique sailing and sightseeing cruise makes dinner cruises in Dubai extremely popular.

DINNER : Most dinners on dhow cruises provide a lavish 3-course buffet meal prepared with 5-star standards . Even before the buffet starts, when you arrive at the dock, you are usually welcomed with dates and coffee. The dinner cruise cuisine is as varied as it comes - Indian, Italian, Continental, Mediterranean, fruits, seafood and the likes. There are enough options for vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike.

ENTERTAINMENT : When it comes to entertainment, many dhow cruises feature dance and singing events. As you're seated on your table and enjoy the sights of modern Dubai going past you, local artists will perform a range of local artforms for your entertainment. These dances include belly dancing, tanoura dancing, puppet shows and even magic shows; making the entire cruise experience pretty wholesome.

A “ Dhow ” is a traditional wooden vessel that is common in the  Middle East  and has been used historically for a variety of purposes, primarily for trading.

Dhows are made in a variety of sizes and in the  UAE  have been most used for trade between UAE and Iran aswell as for  pearl diving .

Over the last decade the demand for dhows has gone down and has been replaced by more modern vessels.

Nonetheless, Dhows have played a cruicial role in the history and evolution of the gulf and are iconic as a mode of sea transportation.

In the last couple of decades, a lot of the ‘Dhows’ have been repurposed for tourism purposes, one of them being dhow cruise dinners.

A  Dhow Cruise Dubai Marina  is a nice concept. Read on.

In the 90’s, some entrepreneurs began converting the larger dhows that were traditionally used for trading into refurbished floating restaurants that would operate dinner cruises in the  Dubai Creek .

That segment has grown and over many years has evolved into a rather important and iconic type of tourist attraction in  Dubai .

Starting with only handful of Dhows in early 90’s the segment has grown into over 30 dhows in the Creek and 8 in Dubai Marina.

One the elements of the Dhow Cruise ‘culture’ has been to have live entertainment onboard in a variety of forms.

Originally, belly dancing was most common, but with time, Dubai Government has been eliminating this form of entertainment and has now been almost entirely replaced by ‘Tanura’ – a traditionally Turksih dance that is usually performed by a male dancer that is spinning in a flowing and elaborately decorated dress, creating a very interesting sight.

The dinner cruise in Dubai Marina as a concept began in 2010 with some operators bringing the dhow boats to Dubai Marina and operating floating restaurants. The Dhow Cruise Marina attraction began gaining momentum and popularity and currently is a household product among inbound tour operators in Dubai.

Today, the dinner cruise in Dubai Marina is considered to be a much more upscale option that any other area in Dubai.

DINNER ONBOARD A  DHOW CRUISE IN DUBAI MARINA

As always, with the opening of Dubai Marina as a new area and tourist destination, there was room for starting new  business  ventures.

Alexandra was one of the first boats that began its operations as far back as 2009.

Now there are around 7 boats that operate in Dubai Marina.

So what is the difference between a Dhow Cruise in Dubai Marina versus a Dhow Cruise in Dubai Creek?

Well, this  article  will give you a very detailed answer, but funadmentally – the main difference is location.

Dubai Creek is the old part of town, and Dubai Marina is a new area in Dubai.

Fundamentally, that is the only difference, and the difference then lies in the actual operators of each boats. There are many good boats in Dubai Creek and some in Dubai Marina.

It must be noted however that Dubai Marina has MUCH less boats 8 versus more than 25 in the Creek.

As a rule of thumb, the quality of operators in Dubai Marina on average is higher, due to the the higher parking fees and the need to compensate by attracting a higher quality clientele.

DINNER CRUISE DUBAI

A dinner cruise generally is a great combination of dinner and cruising, but a cruise dinner in Dubai Marina is a particular excellent fusion

MARINA CRUISE DUBAI

A dinner cruise in Dubai Marina is an excellent way to combine a sightseeing experience with a dining experience.
