Better use the --default-character-set=utf8
option, too, since whithout it can cause problems
with the encoding of special characters (Umlaute
f.e.).

mysqldump --default-character-set=utf8 -u <username> -p <dbname> > dump.sql

If you can't use mysqldump, you can use the backup
and migrate module.

Have a nice day
