If you think you’ve seen it all with Dubai’s dhow cruises, think again. Nara on the Sea by Nara is rewriting the script with an experience that blends elegance, comfort, and gourmet dining – all while floating through Dubai’s scenic waterways. And I have to warn you, this isn’t your average boat ride. It’s an elevated journey designed to impress from the moment you step aboard, getting on any other boat after Nara on the Sea might turn out to be a little disappointing – but I know you still want all the deets, so keep reading to find out more!
The Lady Nara dhow, docked near Dubai Festival City Mall, is a beauty in itself. The interiors feature earthy terracotta and sage tones, plush cushions, and rattan chairs, creating a vibe that’s stylish yet homely. Whether you’re seated on the cosy lower deck or the breezy upper deck, comfort and charm are guaranteed. As the dhow glides away from the dock, a spectacular journey begins. The route takes you from Dubai Creek into the serene waters of Dubai Water Canal, offering views that are both calming and captivating.
Nara on the Sea offers two distinct cruises to suit your mood and schedule:
The open-air upper deck is undeniably the best seat in the house. With the gentle breeze and unparalleled views, it’s perfect for couples, families, or even larger groups.
Your culinary journey onboard Nara on the Sea begins with a vibrant crudités platter of fresh vegetables, pink hummus, labneh olive dip, and a selection of breads. Appetisers like the delicately poached Red Snapper Salad over smoky baba ganoush, and the light Artichoke and Courgette Carpaccio offer a variety of textures and tastes. As the dhow cruises near the iconic Burj Khalifa, the main courses are served, featuring a trio of options to please every palate: tender Black Cod in a tangy spiced tomato sauce and Pepper Mechouia paired with fragrant saffron rice for vegetarians. And, of course, no meal is complete without a sweet ending. Enjoy their pistachio cake and refreshing raspberry sorbet, and your luxurious journeys around Dubai’s most sparkling waters comes to an end.
Nara on the Sea offers cruises daily at 4 PM and 8 PM. To reserve your spot for this unforgettable journey, call 050 336 7909 or visit their website. Whether it’s for a romantic evening, a family outing, or a special celebration, this cruise promises an experience you won’t forget.
