So, imagine this: you’re floating down Dubai Creek, holding a skewer of sizzling kebabs, and laughing with your mates, all from the comfort of a giant inflatable donut. Sounds too dreamy? Well, Dubai’s BBQ Donut Boat turns this fantasy into real-life deliciousness.

This boat isn’t just shaped like a donut for kicks. It’s a fully equipped floating BBQ station. Yes, really. It seats up to 10 people, has a built-in charcoal grill in the centre, and gently glides through the city’s serene waterways. It’s a wild mix of picnic, private cruise, and outdoor cookout – all wrapped in one smoky, saucy package.
What Exactly Is a BBQ Donut Boat?

Let’s break it down for the uninitiated. A BBQ Donut Boat is a round, inflatable vessel powered by a silent motor, with a BBQ grill plonked in the middle. The name comes from its shape, not the menu. Though, hey, bring doughnuts if you like.
This isn’t your average boat ride. No captain is yelling over a speaker. You and your crew are in charge (don’t panic, there’s a quick safety briefing before you launch). Bring your meats, or let the folks at BBQ Donut Dubai sort you out with premium cuts, tasty sides, and even cold drinks.
