Al Hamra’s Marina – the Royal Yacht Club of Ras Al Khaimah – was recently independently audited and has subsequently been awarded 5 Gold Anchors from UK-based The Yacht Harbour Association (TYHA). The club is now the only marina in the Northern Emirates to be awarded with the recognition.

With more than 200 wet and dry berths, and direct access to the open sea, the Royal Yacht Club of Ras Al Khaimah offers secure and sheltered berthing and a private anchorage lagoon, making it a haven for sailors.

The full-service marina offers berth holders excellent facilities and services such as a fuel station, slipway, dry storage yard, showers, changing rooms, car parking directly next to the marina, electricity and water at each berth, boat registration and cleaning services.

Super yacht owners can avail of a daily anchorage offering, offering them safe anchorage at sea, while still enjoying the full benefits and access of the marina.

Once moored within the marina, visitors can visit and enjoy a wealth of premium hospitality outlets such as Muse Social House, Clubhouse and Al Hamra Golf Club. There is also a membership programme specifically tailored for berth holders which offers a range of unique benefits including discounts at food and beverage outlets, complimentary access to beach leisure at Clubhouse, daily use of SUP and kayaks, discounts on water sports and a range of services and facilities around Ras Al Khaimah.

The Gold Anchor rating works in a very similar way to the star rating system for hotels and guest accommodation and is awarded following an independent assessment of the marina’s facilities, operations and customer service. – TradeArabia News Service
