Luxury Family-Friendly Watercraft for Coastal Hospitality
Imagine guests at Seychelles’ North Island Resort gliding effortlessly through turquoise waters, their laughter echoing as they fish or simply soak in the sun. DERBAL’s Sea Ocean Kayak transforms ordinary beach outings into unforgettable luxury experiences.
Crafted from 100% marine-grade LLDPE, this kayak withstands saltwater corrosion and UV exposure – a game-changer for Dubai’s Atlantis The Palm, where monsoon seasons demand uncompromising durability. Its 3700mm length and 285kg sport load ensure stability for multi-generational groups, while stainless steel hardware resists rust in humid coastal climates.
Hotels love its customizable branding – gold-thread embroidery for VIP suites at Maldives’ One&Only Rangali, or crisp white with coral accents for eco-friendly properties. Plus, with 2x Flush Rod Holders and a removable bungee strap, anglers and snorkelers alike stay organized.
But it’s not just about function. The ergonomic cockpit design reduces fatigue during sunset cruises, and the quick-dry fabric cuts laundry costs by 40% – a win for Qatar’s Katara Hospitality.
