Fishing in Dubai is a great adventure, and aboard the Al Rubban you are bound to have an incredible time. Captain Donabur has over 15 years of experience, and will be with you every step of the way, to make sure you have the greatest fishing trip.

This 39' Al Rubban has a maximum capacity of 12, so large groups are more than welcome. Capt. Donabur does suggests that only 6 anglers fish at a time for maximum comfort. For trips in the summer Capt. Donabur recommends the longer trips, which will give you plenty of time to head out to the cooler waters to catch the fish. With a maximum cruising speed of 40 knots, you'll on the fish in an hour.

Al Rubban offers many different trips to suit all the needs of their customers. The smaller trips are better for beginners, whereas the longer trip is more suited to experienced anglers who don't mind traveling to get on the fish. Once at the fishing spots, you can target specific species. On all the trips customers are welcome to go for a swim before heading back to shore.

You can expect to catch Kingfish, Cobia and Barracuda to name a few, through various fishing techniques such as trolling or jigging. Children are more than welcome aboard, and life vests are provided. Capt. Donabur kindly asks that pregnant women and newborns do not come aboard due to safety reasons.

To be able to fish you will need to bring along original identification documents. Capt. Donabur recommends you bring your passport. Please note, photocopies will not be accepted, and without your passport you will not be able to board.

Capt. Donabur looks forward to welcoming you and your friends and family aboard the Al Rubban, for a great day of fishing.

    Amazing trip in Dubai

    5 Hour Trip (PM) on October 25, 2026 • 2 adults

    We caught a variety of fish including a really big one! The captain and his mate were super patient and helpful throughout the trip. We had an amazing fishing experience. After fishing, the captain recommended a great seafood restaurant for us and even drove us there. The fish tasted fantastic. Highly recommend this trip!

    Great Family Experience and Morning at Sea

    4 Hour Trip (PM) on February 14, 2026 • 5 adults • 3 children

    We took a 4 hour morning trip as family of 5 (3 young kids and 2 adults). Captain Hassan was very responsive from the beginning when we tried arranging the best time for the trip. Both him and his assistant (Rex) were very welcoming. They explained a lot and were very helpful with the kids. We caught a lot of fish of different size and type which Captian Hassan arranged to get cleaned and grilled afterwards in one of the closeby restaurants. The boat was spacious, very clean and had a toilet. We got served water and juices onboard. The most fun part was deep sea fishing, so much joy and excitement every time a fish got caught. Kids definitely want to do it again and we’d highly recommend it! 😊 Thank you Captain Hassan & Rex 👌🎣

    Incredible Fishing Experience in Dubai!

    4 Hour Trip (PM) on February 18, 2026 • 5 adults

    We had an amazing fishing experience in Dubai! We booked in advance and everything was perfectly organized. We fished using trolling (dragging) techniques as well as live bait, and managed to catch a wide variety of fish. The boat was very comfortable, the equipment was top quality, and the crew was absolutely fantastic — professional, friendly, and very helpful throughout the trip. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a serious and enjoyable fishing adventure!

    5 Hour Trip (PM) on December 8, 2025 • 7 adults

    An interesting day on the water. A couple of friends went on a sea fishing for the first time, and this trip gave them a great introduction to what boat fishing looks like. Overall, I would recommend this charter to anyone coming to Dubai for a vacation.

Hassan has been running these charters since 2017, and through the excellent trips and great captains, he has already seen customers returning again and again to him. Captain Donabur will be with you on these trips. He has been fishing for over 15 years, and knows the area well, so will always try his hardest to get you on the fish.
