The experience

A sunset sail aboard a traditional wooden dhow, with a BBQ buffet dinner served on deck as the Doha skyline lights up.

The dhow departs from Doha Box Park for a cruise along the Doha skyline, with life jackets, a music system and bathroom facilities on board, and a crew that greets guests with tea, coffee or soft drinks as the boat sets sail.

A BBQ buffet dinner is served on the sunset option, with the boat’s traditional wooden construction and decor giving the meal a setting distinct from any restaurant in the city, before returning to Doha Port.
