Dubai Harbour project to include Mideast’s largest marina
Dubai plans to build the Middle East and North Africa’s largest marina as a part of its latest megaproject announced Monday.
The waterside ‘Dubai Harbour’ development, to be developed by Meraas, is set to span 20 million square feet and include berths for 1,400 boats.
It was announced by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai.
The project will be located on King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud Street, in the area between Jumeirah Beach Residence and Palm Jumeirah, also known as Mina Al Seyahi, a government statement said.
It will also include a cruise ship port and terminal, a shopping mall covering 3.5 million sq. ft., an events arena, luxurious residential buildings, hotels, offices, retail stores, public services, restaurants and cafes and the ‘Dubai Lighthouse’.
The masterplan of the new destination integrates Skydive Dubai, Dubai International Marine Club (DIMC) and Logo Island into a single community. To be developed in phases, the Dubai Harbour project will be completed in four years once ground has been broken.
