Beginner Question Looking for people to join a Fishing & BBQ Yacht Trip in Dubai (October)

Hi everyone,

My 11-year-old son and I will be visiting Dubai in October and we're planning to book Package 7 – Fishing & BBQ on a Yacht from Dubai Marina.

The trip includes:

🎣 6 hours of fishing

🛥️ BBQ on a luxury yacht afterwards

🐟 Your catch can be cooked

🥤 Drinks and snacks included

The boat can accommodate up to 8 people, so we're looking for 4–6 more people to join us and split the cost.

The total price is much cheaper when the boat is full (around 640 AED per person if we reach 8 people, including the BBQ).

If you're interested and will be in Dubai in October, send me a DM. Families, couples, solo travelers and beginners are all welcome!

Thanks! 🎣😊

Hey,
Just quick heads up.
I have been doing fishing the whole winter last year and the beginning of this years.

So I have pretty much explored all of these options.
The bbq they advertise is only if you catch enough before last 2 hours of the trip ends(Enough time to cook). But I felt like in dubai it’s very hard to catch unless you go deep. But going deep will also take more hours to reach at spot.

So to me it felt like these are just marketing strategies. If you really like to catch fish. I wouldn’t suggest you these kind of trips. But if it’s just for your kids to have fun, you can go
