West Nautical At Dubai International Boat Show 2025

The West Nautical team had the pleasure of participating in the 31st edition of the Dubai International Boat Show (DIBS) 2025, which took place from February 19th to 23rd at Dubai Harbour. The growth of the yachting industry across Dubai and the Middle East makes DIBS a 'must-visit' on your boat show calendar. The show attracted over 35,000 visitors and showcased more than 200 luxury yachts and watercraft from globally renowned brands.

DIBS continues to grow in prominence, setting new records for global and regional yacht premieres while showcasing the finest products, services, and innovations in the yachting industry. This year, West Nautical had a strong presence at the show, with not only our Middle East team but also personnel traveling from around the world to take part.

The West Nautical team were based at Stand MLL-48 in the Marine Luxury and Lifestyle Exhibit, providing an excellent platform to present our full range of services, including yacht charter, sales, and management. Throughout the show, we were enable to engage in thoughtful conversations with clients, industry leaders, and yachting enthusiasts to explore our offerings and discuss bespoke yachting solutions with our expert team.

Beyond the Marine Luxury Lifestyle Exhibit, DIBS featured a diverse array of showcases, including a dedicated brokerage section for premium pre-owned yachts, luxury waterfront real estate, state-of-the-art marine technology, and an elevated hospitality experience.

A particular stand out feature of the DIBS experience is exploring the exhilarating Supercar Avenue, a returning favourite among guests and members of the West Nautical team alike. This area provided an opportunity to take a look at some of the latest advances in automotive design and engineering, or simply just to admire the spectacle of the high-performance cars on display.

Our attendance at DIBS 2025 provided fascinating insights into a yachting market which continues to grow, with superyacht ownership increasing by over 20% in the MENA region over the past five years. Furthermore, the show gave us a fantastic  opportunity to network and promote our Middle East office to contacts in the region. We are excited to continue bringing the highest calibre of service to owners, clients and brokers in this emerging superyacht market.
