Two of Doha’s most prominent nautical facilities have announced an extension to their alliance, as Qatar continues to accelerate as a superyacht destination.
Announced during the 2026 Qatar Boat Show, a new memorandum of understanding (MoU) between Old Doha Port and The Pearl Island Marina extends their agreement to work together to facilitate maritime events and improve their respective marinas’ offerings.

The ceremony was overseen by Ali Abdulrahman Al-Abdulla, Director of Marine Operations at Old Doha Port, and Ahmed Al Fadala, General Manager of Ronautica Middle East at The Pearl Island Marina.
Old Doha Port announced its series of initial collaborations with a number of Qatar’s local marinas, including The Pearl Island, in July 2025. The alliance was intended to accelerate Old Doha Port as an instrumental pillar of the country’s marine tourism objectives and a luxury leisure marine hub.
Old Doha Port, home of the Qatar Boat Show, offers 450 berths for vessels up to 160 meters in length. The Pearl Island welcomes nearly 900 berths for vessels up to 45 meters in length.
