Camper & Nicholsons‘ Yas Marina, a breath-taking Abu Dhabi yacht charter destination, positioned in the Middle East, is no longer just a place for superyachts and the F1 Race Week. Although the Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix remains the luxury yacht marina’s best calling card, this fabulous property on Yas Island has widened its appeal and is also attracting crowds during the other 51 weeks.
With seven new licensed food and beverage venues offering large terraces with panoramic views of the marina, a pedestrianised promenade, an interactive musical fountain and a children’s playground, Yas Marina will certainly go above and beyond the expectation of visitors during this year’s Race Week.
Cedric Le Rest, General Manager at Yas Marina, comments: “2013 was an outstanding event for us as it was the first Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix with our newly launched restaurant and lounge offerings – the entire atmosphere was buzzing with energy and life and we welcomed over 200 yachts and 15,000 guests. With preparations underway, we look forward to offering another year of exceptional customer service and fun entertainment for guests of all ages. This year’s race will be quite amazing because Abu Dhabi is the last race of the season, with double the points at stake it promises to bring double the action both on and off track.”
Race Week berthing packages
Whether you are a motorsports fan or not, Yas Marina offers the best of both worlds: an exclusive racing and yachting experience in the heart of the action. Race Week berthing packages not only include track view berthing options, but also a generous amount of Yas Marina guest and crew passes and entry to the post-race nightly concerts at the Du Arena.
Berths during the Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix are extremely limited and sell out quickly year on year, particularly track view options. Expressions of interest are open until the end of July with deals being finalised after August 1st.
Yacht owners wanting to enjoy Yas Marina all year-round can also take advantage of the attractive and very competitive annual berthing rates starting at AED 16,445. This rate includes a berth during the Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, along with a Yas Marina Privilege card that provides a vast range of discounts and exclusive benefits at partner venues of Yas Island.
