Quick Overview

Meeting point: Dubai Harbour — Yacht Club, Main Entrance (by L’Amo Bistro, near Gate 7-BA). Nearest Metro: Sobha Realty (Red Line). From there, take a short taxi to the Yacht Club. Nearest Tram: Mina Seyahi (Dubai Tram). From the tram, it’s a signed walk within the Harbour district.

Best First-Time Route

Ride the Red Line to Sobha Realty, then a 5–10 min taxi to Dubai Harbour — Yacht Club. Show your mobile voucher at check-in.

Coming from Palm/JBR

Take the Dubai Tram to Mina Seyahi and follow signs/waterside paths toward Dubai Harbour — Yacht Club. Allow extra time for marina security and wayfinding.

Option 1 — From Downtown (Burj Khalifa / Dubai Mall)

Great if you’re staying near Business Bay, DIFC, or Downtown.

  • Metro: Take the Red Line from Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall toward Jabal Ali → exit at Sobha Realty.
  • Taxi/ride-hail: From Sobha Realty, a short taxi (≈ 5–10 min) to Dubai Harbour — Yacht Club (Gate 7-BA / L’Amo).
  • Alternative (Tram): From Sobha Realty, connect to Dubai Marina Tram → ride to Mina Seyahi → walk to the Yacht Club.

Tickets

Nol cards work across metro, tram, and buses. Off-peak trains are quieter; keep 15–20 minutes buffer for transfers and the marina walk.

Option 2 — Metro & Tram (Fast and Affordable)

Red Line → Tram

Use Sobha Realty (Red Line) for Dubai Marina, or DMCC (Red Line) on the JLT side. Transfer to the Dubai Tram and ride to Mina Seyahi for Dubai Harbour.

Wayfinding

Inside the Harbour, follow signs for Yacht Club / Gate 7-BA near L’Amo Bistro. Allow extra time for marina gates and security paths.

Good to Know

Tram doors are level with platforms (easy with strollers). During events, crowd flows may be redirected—follow on-site staff guidance.

Option 3 — Buses & Scenic Walks

RTA buses run along JBR/Marina and Media City corridors. Services such as 8 and 84 serve stops near Mina Seyahi / Dubai Media City. From there, walk toward Dubai Harbour and follow signage to the Yacht Club.

  • Plan buffer: Traffic along the beachfront can slow buses at peak times—aim for an earlier arrival slot.
  • Hydration: Paths are open and sunny—carry water and sun protection.

From Dubai International Airport (DXB)

Metro (Budget-friendly)

Take the Red Line from Airport T1/T3 toward Jabal Ali → Sobha Realty → short taxi to Dubai Harbour — Yacht Club. Expect ≈ 60–75 min + taxi buffer.

Taxi/Ride-hail (Fastest)

25–40 min depending on traffic. Ask for drop-off at Dubai Harbour — Yacht Club, Gate 7-BA (near L’Amo Bistro).

Luggage

Bring only what you need onboard; yacht piers are pedestrian-only and involve short walks. Strollers/suitcases roll fine on smooth marina paths.

Driving & Parking

Dubai Harbour Parking

Follow on-site signs to Dubai Harbour car parks near the Yacht Club and Cruise Terminals. Fees may apply; allow a few minutes to walk from the car park to Gate 7-BA.
