In Dubai, your yacht party can be shut down without warning—even after you’ve paid for a luxury yacht. That’s why booking a yacht party rental Dubai experience isn’t just about music, guests, and decor. From strict guest limits and alcohol policies to marina and maritime rules, one small mistake can end the celebration early.
This guide by Velux Rentals points out the regulations that you should follow prior to boarding.
Guest Restrictions & Safety Regulations
Every yacht in Dubai has an approved capacity which varies depending on the size of the yacht and the safety equipment it has. It is prohibited to exceed such a number.
Along with that, there should be life jackets, emergency exits, and safety briefing, which should be followed. Children are not allowed to eat on board unless they are accompanied. Velux Rentals makes sure that all yachts are in full compliance, are fully licensed and manned by trained captains and crew.
Music, Noise and Duration of Party Rules
It is allowed to play music on a yacht in Dubai, but not too loud, particularly where marinas and residential beaches are involved. Too much noise will be enough to set off a warning or even the sudden termination of the journey. The average time spent out on a party is two to four hours; any longer or overnight charter has to be approved on the individual yachts. Adhering to the schedule agreed enables one to avoid punishments or losing docking.
Alcohol, Food and Catering Policies

Onboard alcohol is only legal when it is organized by licensed yacht rental company. This does not allow you to come with your own drinks unless it is approved beforehand. Catering may be arranged at the time of onboarding or contracted with accepted outside suppliers, while maintaining strict adherence to cleanliness and good behavior. Early cancellation of the trip may be caused by public intoxication, disorderly conduct, or actions that could be considered unsafe.
Dress Code & Guest Conduct
Even in the yachts, Dubai maintains a form of civility. Swimming suits are okay at the boarding stages, and not at the marinas. The guests should treat other vessels and crew with respect. One is not supposed to jump into the water before the designated places and the approval of the captain. A disregard of rules of conduct can lead to instant action.
Adornments, DJs and Entertainment Limits
Decorations, themed set-ups, DJs and live entertainments are admissible with prior permission. No heavy fixtures, sharp objects, fireworks or hazardous objects are allowed. DJs should adopt onboard sound systems to ensure that they do not violate safety and noise rules. Velux Rentals takes care of the pre-approval of all the entertainment so that there is smooth sailing.
Identification Requirements and Booking Requirements.
It is possible to require guests to produce valid documents, e.g. passport or Emirates ID when boarding. It is strongly advised that one books in advance during the high seasons, weekends and holidays. Bigger groups or superior yachts can have a security deposit.
