No better way to see Abu Dhabi from a different perspective! Cruise from the iconic Yas Marina on Yas Island all the way around the beautiful Samaliyah Island, part of the UAE Heritage club this is one of Abu Dhabi's largest inshore islands, with a traditional Emirati village on the beachfront, gazelles roaming in the wild and clear views over the endless mangrove forests with the skyline of the city in the distance.

Boarding from the iconic Yas Marina on Yas Island, with the boats conveniently located nearby all the bars & restaurants - our crew will be there to welcome all guests on board, give a safety briefing and offer everybody a cold drink.

Once we exit the marina we will cruise past the Al Raha Beach waterfront developments and head over towards Samaliyah Island, one of the largest privately owned islands within the inshore coastline of Abu Dhabi. The island is part of the UAE Heritage Club and provides unique views to a traditional Emirati village on the beachfront, as well as being home to hundreds of wild gazelles which can be seen roaming around near the mangroves.

As we bend the corner at the top of the island we will see the outline of the city's skyline in the distance (depending on visibility), with famous buildings such as the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque and the world record leaning Hyatt Capital Gate tower standing out.

Cruising back along the inner side of the island this is where most of the gazelles are usually sighted - our captain will be happy to slow down and get up-close to the waterfront where guests will have great photo opportunities with the gazelles in the background.
Once the full circle is complete we cruise past the iconic Aldar HQ building (the round building shaped like a coin) and enter the small canals inside the Al Bandar and Al Muneera developments before arriving back at Yas Marina.
