The Ocean Empress Dinner Cruise takes you on a two-hour sail across Dubai Marina aboard one of the world's largest traditional dinner cruise vessels, with room for up to 500 guests on a single sailing across calm evening waters.

Boarding at Dubai Marina (7:45 pm)

Boarding opens at 7:45 pm and the Ocean Empress sails at 8:30 pm from Dubai Marina. The 16,000-square-foot vessel blends a classic sailing feel with modern comforts, giving you room to settle in, find a good spot on deck and get comfortable before the skyline views begin.

Sightseeing along Dubai Marina and Palm Jumeirah

Once underway, you can relax on deck and take in Dubai Marina, Palm Jumeirah, Bluewaters Island and Jumeirah Beach Residence from the water, with landmark views of Atlantis, The Palm and Ain Dubai passing by at a relaxed pace over the two-hour sail, away from the crowds on land.

Dinner service and Robo Chef

The cruise begins with a welcome drink, followed by a buffet of Asian and international dishes, including canapes, salads, main course options and desserts. One of the highlights is the live cooking stations, including Robo Chef, a fully robotic kitchen where you can watch your noodles, pasta or vegetables prepared to order.

Live entertainment onboard

Live music plays throughout the sailing, alongside a Tanura performance, in which a dancer spins in a colorful, multi-layered skirt as part of a traditional folk routine, adding a cultural touch to the evening on the water.

Upgrade your experience with the Luxury Dubai Canal Cruise for a scenic waterway journey or enjoy the elegance of the Lotus Mega Yacht Sunset Cruise for sweeping sunset views. You can also indulge in the Lotus Mega Yacht Dinner Cruise for a lavish floating dining experience with entertainment and skyline views.

Awesome View

5/5

The observation deck provides an interesting angle to see Dubai from. The stunning 360-degree views we enjoyed from 240 metres above were priceless.

Awesome Buffet Dinner

5/5

Anything earned by sweat tastes good. That’s what we experienced after catching crabs and relishing them with a buffet dinner.
