UAE Deputy PM Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan holidays in Paros

Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the United Arab Emirates, spent his summer holiday on the Greek island of Paros.

The senior Emirati official arrived aboard the Opera, a 147-metre superyacht built by German shipbuilder Lürssen and valued at approximately €500 million. During his stay, the Sheikh was seen in Paroikia accompanied by a large entourage and a security detail of at least 10 personnel.

On a recent Saturday night, the Sheikh and approximately 30 guests dined at the Crios restaurant, which was reserved exclusively for the group. To ensure the meal met his preferences while maintaining authentic Greek character, the Sheikh’s personal chef, Namig, visited the establishment multiple times in advance to sample the menu. The dinner featured traditional dishes such as dolmades, spanakopita, sea urchin, and slow-roasted lamb.

Following the dinner, the party returned to the Opera via tender boats. The vessel subsequently departed Paros and sailed toward Athens, docking at Flisvos Marina.
