Yas Marina: more than just a berth, but your passport to Abu Dhabi's Golden Age. Standing apart as the UAE and GCC's only marina with the coveted 5 Gold Anchor Platinum accreditation, Yas Marina is a mark of exceptionality for yacht owners. This esteemed status is amplified by the Golden Quay initiative, an exclusive program tailored for private owners of luxury yachts measuring 40+ metres in the yachting industry. This exclusive program is a testament to Yas Marina's collaboration with the Abu Dhabi government and Investment Offive to strengthen its position as a premier yachting destination.
As a key partner in the Golden Quay initiative, Yas Marina plays a critical role in identifying and nominating eligible candidates, ensuring a seamless onboarding process. By collaborating with the Abu Dhabi government, Yas Marina is not only facilitating the Golden Quay program but also solidifying Abu Dhabi's position as a leading global yachting destination.

Abu Dhabi is reachable by 80% of the world within an 8-hour flight, making it a globally accessible destination. Once there, Golden Quay participants have world-class dining, entertainment options, and cultural attractions just moments from their yachts.
