Dubai Harbour Properties

Dubai Harbour’ will play a vital role in raising Dubai’s global profile as a cruise ship hub. ‘Dubai Harbour’ will have a fully equipped urban port to welcome global cruise liners and a fully serviced and state-of-the art passenger terharbourl, offering a duty free shopping experience. The terharbourl can accommodate 6000 passengers at one time. The destination’s various luxury facilities, and entertainment, leisure and retail offerings will offer cruise passengers a unique entry experience. The new passenger terharbourl, spanning an area of 150,000 sq. feet, will attract tourists due to its unique location between Palm Jumeirah and ‘Ain Dubai’, two of Dubai’s iconic landmarks

Meraas has commenced discussions with four of the leading global cruise liners with the aim of offering a strong value proposition for this sector. The company will also tap opportunities presented by Emirates Airlines, which carried 52 million passengers in the fiscal year 2015/2016. The project will help Dubai tap the vast growth opportunities in the maritime tourism industry. In 2017, Dubai is expected to receive 650,000 maritime travellers, while 25.3 million passengers are expected to sail around the world, according to a report published recently by the Cruise Line International Association (CLIA), the world’s largest cruise industry trade association. The advanced infrastructure and world-class services offered by ‘Dubai Harbour’ is expected to stimulate a 100% increase in the number of maritime travellers to Dubai following the completion of the project.

‘Dubai Harbour’ is an integrated destination that will offer its residents and visitors an affluent lifestyle experience. The new development will offer unparalleled views of Dubai’s skyline, the clear waters of the Arabian Gulf and ‘Ain Dubai’, the world’s largest and tallest observation wheel. The residential offerings of the project will include high and low rise buildings, waterfront villas and houses. There will also be a wide selection of retail outlets, restaurants and cafes. The destination will also feature several hotels, one of which will offer an internal water station built under it providing direct access to its facility for guests coming by sea.

The destination will also be home to ‘Dubai Lighthouse’, a unique architectural icon. Featuring a luxury hotel, the 135 metres high ‘Dubai Lighthouse’ will have an observation deck that offers 360 degree views. ‘Dubai Lighthouse’ will have a solid, smooth and unfettered façade that can be used as a gigantic screen for high resolution projections and light shows. ‘Dubai Harbour’ will also offer a venue for events and exhibitions all year round with a special focus on maritime events. These will complement the existing calendar of events hosted by the Dubai International Marine Club. Adventure seekers can enjoy a range of activities offered by Skydive Dubai. The destination will also feature the largest shopping mall in the area, public services, a yacht club and offices
