An Atlantis yacht charter is the most photogenic way to experience Palm Jumeirah and the Atlantis resorts — Atlantis The Palm, the Royal Atlantis, and the new Aquaventure waterpark from the privacy of the Arabian Gulf. Our private 42–66ft yachts depart Dubai Marina Yacht Club and reach the Crescent of Palm Jumeirah in approximately 30 minutes, putting you directly in front of the iconic pink Atlantis The Palm hotel and the gleaming Royal Atlantis tower.
Atlantis Yachts Dubai is the city's leading luxury yacht charter brand operating around Palm Jumeirah and the Atlantis resorts. Whether you're staying at Atlantis as a guest, photographing the resort skyline for a wedding album, or simply chasing the most cinematic view of one of Dubai's most iconic landmarks, we have a yacht ready for you in the Marina today.

What to Expect on an Atlantis Yacht Charter
Every Atlantis yacht charter departs from Dubai Marina Yacht Club and follows a route designed to maximise the time you spend in front of the Atlantis resorts. Our captains plot a path that takes you west along the JBR coastline, around the breakwater, and onto the calmer water of the Crescent — where Atlantis The Palm and the Royal Atlantis stand side by side, framed against the Dubai skyline behind them.
On a 3-hour charter, the typical itinerary is approximately 25 minutes outbound, 90 minutes cruising the Atlantis Crescent (with an optional anchor stop for swimming and photography), and 25 minutes return. Most guests find this is the perfect duration for a full Atlantis yacht charter — long enough to enjoy the photography, the swim, and a relaxed lunch on board, short enough to fit into an afternoon while still leaving time for the rest of Dubai.

Best Yachts for an Atlantis Charter
For couples and small groups (up to 12 guests), the 43ft Senorita and 44ft Isabella are our most-booked yachts for Atlantis cruises — both have a forward sun pad, a swim platform that drops directly into the Gulf, and a quiet 2-hour return route to the Marina. From AED 389/hour.
For mid-size groups (up to 25), the 50ft Valentina is the most popular Atlantis charter yacht — its open flybridge gives you elevated 360-degree views of the entire Palm Crescent, perfect for photography and aerial drone shots. From AED 420/hour.
For larger Atlantis charters — corporate retreats, wedding parties, milestone birthdays — the 66ft Bellavita is our flagship, with capacity for 35 guests, three master cabins, and a wide-open sundeck specifically designed for celebrations against the Atlantis skyline. From AED 589/hour.
