About this boat
Ferretti has been building yachts in Forlì, Italy, since 1968, and the Ferretti 780 is one of the stand-outs of our VIP collection. On a 76 ft hull it fits four cabins for a group of no more than 12, so the mood on board stays intimate whether you are hosting family or celebrating a birthday. Rates open at 4,999 AED per hour and take care of the skipper, crew and fuel; the yacht is moored at Dubai Harbour Yacht Club.
One, two or three hours?
In one hour (4,999 AED) the captain usually takes you past Bluewaters and Ain Dubai, along JBR and Dubai Marina, with the outer crescent of Palm Jumeirah on the horizon. Two hours (9,998 AED) are enough to reach Atlantis The Palm and see the Burj Al Arab from the water. Three hours (14,997 AED) give you time to drop anchor, swim and take things slowly. The captain sets the final route according to the sea state and Coast Guard instructions. These are starting prices as of October 2026; rates vary with the season and the date.
What your hourly rate covers
The essentials cost nothing extra: the boat, a professional skipper and crew, fuel, bottled water, ice and soft drinks are all part of the price. On board there is a fridge, a microwave, basic cutlery and a Bluetooth speaker system, so you can bring your own food, drinks and playlist. If you want more, our team can add decorations, catering, a live BBQ chef or water toys such as jet skis on request.
Occasions it suits
- Birthdays at sea – room for the cake, a speaker and the group photo, on a deck that is yours alone.
- Evening parties – music on deck with Dubai Marina and JBR lit up all around you.
- Sunset dinners – dinner served on deck as the light fades over Palm Jumeirah.
- Fishing trips – rods and tackle supplied, with a crew that knows where the fish bite.
When to go
The cooler months, roughly from October or November to April, are the most pleasant time to be on the water. From May to September, plan your trip for the morning, for sunset or after dark, when the heat is easier to handle. When the shamal, the strong north-westerly wind, makes the sea rough, the Coast Guard may advise against sailing and your trip is moved to another slot.
Reserving the Ferretti 780
Pick a date and a start time on our online booking form. Your slot is secured as soon as the agreed deposit is paid, and the balance is settled before you sail. Dubai Coast Guard rules require every guest to show an original passport or a valid Emirates ID at boarding.

A truly unforgettable experience. We booked a private sunset cruise with Goldwater Yacht for a special anniversary, and the service was absolutely world-class. From the VIP pick-up to the professional crew on board, every detail was handled with care.
Amazing experience and service. The pictures came out great!
The best jet car company in Dubai, thank you.
A very, very wonderful experience and treatment, you will not regret it, full of surprises and very kind people
Best experience today with Gold Yacht – a unique and fun experience. We'll definitely do it again with you many times.
This was THE BEST SERVICE EVER! Thank you to the crew and the captain for all their help. We have a birthday party and the crew was sooo nice. They helped setting the tables and they were great with the kids and the waterslide. They packed all our stuff neatly and offloaded everything while we were getting the kids ready. We have been on alot of cruises and we have never experienced such great service from the crew. They came fully prepared. Great! Great! Great!

An exceptional family experience at Dubai Marina. Everything was perfectly arranged, from the warm welcome to the impeccable service on board. The yacht was elegant, spotless, and extremely comfortable.
A truly memorable and refined outing with breathtaking views. Highly recommended.
Absolutely loved this experience—highly, highly recommend! The staff were amazing, always answering my questions and were super responsive on whatsapp in the planning phase and ensuring everything went smoothly on board. I didn’t have to worry about a single thing. A huge shoutout to Pugal, Stephen, Basit, Sadam, and Joy—they were the best! They catered to all our needs, were incredibly fun, and super friendly. Their attentiveness, great bartending skills, cleanliness, and professionalism made my party unforgettable. Loved them! I can't stress enough how excited I am to use this service again. Also the yacht was perfection - stunning and spotless
The experience is worth it, booking was easy, the location point is great and parking is available, they have a great friendly staff.
Amazing experience
Very good
It was a sheer delight to avail the services of this yatch, jetski, and jetcar company. From the moment of initial contact, the level of service and attention to detail was beyond exceptional. The staff was impeccably polished, gracious, and accommodating in every manner. The yatch, jetski, and jetcar were magnificent specimens of nautical craftsmanship, with every aspect of their design and maintenance reflecting the highest standards of excellence.
The voyage was a tour de force of breathtaking scenery, invigorating adventure, and unforgettable memories. The seamless integration of luxury and leisure was a testament to the company's commitment to providing a truly unparalleled experience. The jetski was a thrill to operate, gliding through the water with nimble precision, while the yatch provided a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The jetcar was the cherry on top, offering a unique and exhilarating mode of transport.
In conclusion, it is with utmost fervor that I highly recommend this yatch, jetski, and jetcar company to anyone seeking a lavish and unforgettable escape. Their unwavering dedication to quality, service, and customer satisfaction is a rare gem in an industry where mediocrity all too often prevails. A jubilant salute to this magnificent company!
