A comfortable yacht trip begins before departure with the right yacht, a weather check, and preparation.
Choose a yacht for your group
Compare guest capacity, seating space, lounge facilities, and onboard amenities before booking.
Happiness Boat accommodates up to 15 guests and measures 45 feet. It includes an air-conditioned lounge, outdoor seating, comfortable bow seating, and a private bathroom.
Check the weather and timing
Review the weather and marine forecast before your trip. Morning departures suit swimming, fishing, and quieter surroundings, while sunset provides attractive light and potentially cooler conditions during warmer months.
The captain may adjust the route or departure time when conditions are unsuitable.
Pack for a comfortable yacht trip
Bring water-resistant sunscreen, a hat, sunglasses, a towel, and dry clothing. Keep your phone, wallet, keys, and identification inside a water-resistant bag, and carry a portable battery if you plan to take photographs.
Ask which food and drinks are included in the package. Choose light refreshments that are easy to serve, avoid glass containers when prohibited, and drink water regularly.
Reduce seasickness
Eat a light meal before boarding and avoid heavy food. Sit in a ventilated area and look toward the horizon if you begin feeling uncomfortable.
If you experience motion sickness, consult a doctor or pharmacist before taking medication. Tell the crew if your condition becomes worse instead of waiting for stronger symptoms.
Follow safety instructions
Listen to the captain’s briefing and identify the location of life jackets and emergency equipment. Never swim without permission, run on wet surfaces, or stand near the edge while the yacht is moving.
Review safe boating information provided by Abu Dhabi Maritime before departure.
