Dubai Islands
Deira’s reinvented waterfront, beaches, marinas and low-rise island living off the old city.
Overview
Dubai Islands (formerly Deira Islands) is a group of man-made islands transforming the historic Deira waterfront into a beach-and-marina destination, with miles of new coastline, parks and resorts.
It offers beachfront living close to the original heart of Dubai, with a mix of apartments and low-rise residences at a gentler entry point than the established coastal districts.
