Cruises is expanding its operations in a million dirham expansion that includes the addition of a new vessel - an ocean rafter that
seats 31and can cruise at speeds of 40 knots at sea.
The ocean rafter, which has been built in New Zealand, will broaden the
maritime experience for Danat Dubai customers with an ability to explore
remote areas along the UAE coastline stretching right from the Creek through to Musandan in Oman.
"The ocean rafter is an exciting addition to our fleet and provides yet
another alternative for adventure-seekers who want to experience and witness this beautiful part of the world from the sea," said Chris
Anns, General Manager, Danat Dubai Cruises.
"We'll be able to take advantage of all the strategically placed marinas along
the coastline and use them as stepping stones to all the wonderful places
we can explore.
"Alternatively, the vessel can be used as an unusual 'transfer' vehicle for
people arriving in Dubai. Hotel guests could be collected from the airport
and brought straight to the Creek where they can then cruise along the coast to their hotel! An ideal way to treasure Dubai from the start!" he added.
The ocean rafter joins the company's flagship vessel, the MV Danat.
A 34-meter catamaran, the MV Danat
cruises daily up and down Dubai Creek giving holiday-makers and residents alike a chance to witness the
spectacular views of Dubai from the water. |
