Nakheel Unveils Masterplan for Dubai Islands

Nakheel, the developer of iconic Palm Jumeirah, has unveiled its masterplan for Dubai Islands, formerly called Deira Islands.

The islands, located along Dubai’s northern coastline, will feature 20 kilometres of beaches, two square kilometres of parks and open spaces, which resonates with the goals set in the emirate’s 2040 Urban Master Plan aiming to promote “vibrant and health communities.”

Dubai Islands are an integral part of the future vision for the emirate, focusing on enhancing the health, happiness and wellbeing of residents and visitors, as well as providing the highest standards and variety of urban infrastructure and facilities,

Naaman Atallah, CEO of Nakheel, said.

The company plans to build over 80 resorts and hotels across the 17-square-kilometre project, as the emirate is going through a new boom in luxury property sales.
