About Dubai Islands

Dubai Islands (formerly Deira Islands) is a visionary Nakheel developed community off Deira’s coast, spanning five connected artificial isles covering roughly 17 km². Each island—Central, Marina, Shore, Golf, and Elite—is tailored for distinctive lifestyles: Central brings entertainment, retail, marinas, cultural venues, and large scale housing, while Marina and Shore cater to nautical living and family focused resorts.

Golf Island centers around sports with estates and a country club vibe, and Elite offers ultra private waterfront villas. Together, they feature over 20 km of beachfront (including Blue Flag beaches), 2 km² of parks, premium golf courses, nine marinas, and 80+ hotels & resorts. Strategically located within 25–30 minutes of Downtown, DXB Airport, and Dubai Marina, the development aligns with Dubai’s 2040 masterplan for sustainable, mixed use living.

Early launches like Hotel Riu, Centara Mirage, Souk Al Marfa, Bay Villas, and Rixos residences underscore strong investment interest, with a projected 38,000+ residences, bustling retail, cultural hubs, and water to land connectivity via bridges, ferries, cycling paths, and the Infinity Bridge. Once complete, Dubai Islands will be a world class living destination offering luxury, leisure, wellness, and eco smart urbanity—perfect for families, professionals, tourists, and discerning investors.
