The new base is conveniently located on the waters of the Creek in close proximity to both the Park Hyatt and Dubai Creek Golf and Yacht Club. This new base will be operational from October 2009. Seawings will offer two experiences; Seawings Silver, a 40 minute sightseeing tour of Dubai and Seawings Gold, an exclusive private charter for up to nine passengers.

The Park Hyatt Dubai is a luxury waterfront retreat adjacent to the world-famous Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club. This new base is situated just minutes away from the city centre, world-class shopping and prime business districts.

The Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club, voted one of the world's 'Top 100 Must-Play Golf Courses', is a resort that incorporates an 18 hole championship golf course, a 9 hole Par 3 course, Golf Academy, six restaurants and bars, gymnasium, tropical swimming pool, the 225-bedroom Park Hyatt Dubai, 92 residential executive villas and a 121-berth marina.

The Dubai Creek Golf and Yacht Club provides an ideal location allowing Seawings passengers to experience both the traditional and modern aspects of Dubai. With its club house built in 1993 and designed to mirror the sails of an Arab Dhow and pristine landscape, passengers are spoilt for choice when it comes to natural beauty and modern architecture.

Steeped in history the Dubai Creek is home to traditional abras and a range of wildlife. Separating Deira from Bur Dubai and in a city of modern architecture and iconic landmarks, the Dubai Creek promotes the original "old" Dubai, where pearling established Dubai as a trading hub, setting in motion the modern day city that it currently is.
