Shoulder Season Serenity

When to charter

Kicking off with a bang at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, the high season runs from November to April, peaking from December through March. These cooler winter months offer a welcome escape from the desert heat, with daytime highs around 25°C (77°F) and sea temperatures between 21°C (70°F) and 25°C (77°F). It’s the perfect time for sun-drenched days, elegant nights, and front-row access to world-class events.

Shoulder Season Serenity

For those seeking warmer weather and quieter cruising, the shoulder months of March to May and September to October deliver superb conditions. Expect fewer tourists, tranquil anchorages, and balmy days perfect for beach clubs and water toys. These months offer a more laid-back pace, with all the luxury and beauty of the Gulf — just with more space to enjoy it.
