Oasis Sea Cruise is the Dubai Water Canal's most spacious luxury white catamaran yacht — purpose-built for premium events and unforgettable evenings. With sofa seating throughout, a large LCD display screen, five distinct on-board zones (including a private changing room and side water-level walking areas), and a kitchen that customises its menu entirely to your requirements, the Oasis Sea yacht occupies a completely different category from standard canal cruise vessels.

What is the Oasis Sea Cruise?

The Oasis Sea Cruise — also searched for as the Oasis Sea yacht or simply Oasis yacht — is a modern white luxury catamaran operating on the Dubai Water Canal from Al Jaddaf Waterfront. Unlike the traditional dhows and standard glass boats on the canal, Oasis is a purpose-built premium catamaran yacht designed from the ground up for weddings, corporate events, milestone celebrations, and luxury private charters. At 185-guest capacity, it is the largest and most spacious vessel operating on the Dubai Water Canal.

Why Oasis Sea Cruise Stands Apart — 6 Reasons

1. A True White Luxury Catamaran. Oasis is a purpose-built modern yacht — not a retrofitted dhow. The premium white hull, sleek design, and luxury finishes make it the most visually distinctive vessel on the entire Dubai Water Canal.

2. Luxury Sofa Seating Throughout. Premium sofas on every deck. A U-shaped arrangement in the lower indoor lounge is ideal for corporate meetings and formal gatherings, while wide comfortable sofas on the upper deck offer generous spacing between groups.

3. A Large LCD Display Screen — Genuinely Unique. The upper deck features a large LCD screen that displays your live photos, birthday messages, anniversary slideshows, or company branding throughout the evening. No other standard canal cruise in Dubai offers this.

4. Five Distinct On-Board Zones. The lower air-conditioned indoor lounge, the lower front open area, the upper panoramic sky lounge, the side water-level walkways, and the private stern deck — every guest finds their perfect atmosphere on board.

5. A Private Changing Room. A dedicated on-board private room for changing, freshening up, or private use. This is significant for weddings, formal events, and photographers — and is almost unheard of on a canal cruise vessel.

6. Fully Custom Event Menus. For private events, the Oasis kitchen prepares entirely to your requirements — specific cuisines, special dishes, dietary needs, and plated service. Your event, your menu.

"Oasis is not a dinner cruise that also does events — it is an event venue that happens to float down the most beautiful waterway in Dubai, past the Burj Khalifa."

Who is the Oasis Sea Yacht Best For?

The Oasis Sea yacht is the premium choice on the Dubai Water Canal for anyone planning a special occasion. It is the most popular canal vessel for weddings and proposals (LCD slideshow, special decor, couple seating, private changing room), corporate events and product launches (U-shape seating, LCD branding screen, professional PA system), milestone birthdays and anniversaries, and large family, community, and graduation gatherings of up to 185 guests. For New Year's Eve, Oasis offers a rare vantage point to see both the Dubai Festival City fireworks and the Burj Khalifa fireworks from the water simultaneously.

Oasis Sea Cruise vs a standard dhow cruise: A standard dhow is a traditional wooden boat with fixed bench seating and a set buffet. Oasis is a modern luxury catamaran with sofa seating, an LCD event screen, 5 zones, a private changing room, and fully customisable event menus. Same scenic Burj Khalifa route — a completely different class of experience.

Entertainment Programme

Tap any item to read more — six on-board experiences, several exclusive to Oasis.

The Sufi spinning art performed live on the upper deck. An illuminated multi-layered costume and mesmerising rotation — every camera fires simultaneously. On Oasis, the performance is also displayed live on the LCD screen in real time so every guest gets a perfect view.
A unique crowd favourite — entertaining for children and adults equally. The Panda Show is not available on most Dubai canal vessels and is a genuinely distinctive element of the Oasis experience, especially loved by families and group celebrations.
The large upper-deck LCD screen displays birthday messages, anniversary slideshows, company branding, live photos, and presentation slides for corporate events. This is an entirely unique feature on the Dubai Water Canal — no other cruise vessel offers a live event display screen.
Full-evening coverage from boarding to docking. Photos are printed in an Oasis-branded frame and displayed live on the LCD screen throughout the evening as a rolling gallery — so you see your memories on the big screen as the night unfolds.
Guests wear a real Tanoura performance costume and attempt the spin. With the canal and city lights behind you, these are among the most unique and memorable photos from any Dubai experience — a favourite with families and groups.
Quality audio on both lower and upper decks — clear for corporate presentations, powerful for entertainment shows, and atmospheric for dining. The sound system is noticeably superior to standard cruise audio, making Oasis ideal for product launches and formal events.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything guests ask about the Oasis Sea Cruise before booking.

Oasis is a modern white luxury catamaran — not a traditional dhow. It offers premium sofa seating, a large LCD display screen, five distinct deck zones, a private changing room, custom event menus, and a 185-guest capacity. A standard dhow is a traditional wooden boat with fixed bench seating and a set buffet. Both sail the same scenic Burj Khalifa route on the Dubai Water Canal — but Oasis is a completely different class of vessel, built specifically for premium events and celebrations.
Yes — the Oasis Sea yacht is the premier private event vessel on the Dubai Water Canal. It can be booked privately for weddings, corporate events, milestone birthdays, product launches, and large family gatherings of up to 185 guests.

This makes it ideal for large weddings, corporate functions, and community celebrations.
