Opened in 2003, the man-made marina is set on a two-mile stretch of pristine sand facing the Arabian Gulf. It has quickly grown into one of the most sought-after freehold communities in Dubai. Dubai Marina is famous for its luxurious lifestyle, entertainment options, shopping malls and luxury skyscrapers. Offering some of the most magnificent views to its residents, Dubai Marina is quite famous amongst both tourists and residents. It is home to over 200 luxury residential towers that offer excellent waterfront views either towards the Arabian Gulf or the Marina. You can choose between a range of apartment types, ranging from studios to 4 bedroom apartments and then for those wanting more, a range of penthouses, lofts and podium villas are available in limited supply.
Dubai Marina is the undisputed champion when it comes to entertainment and dining options with hundreds of choices all within walking distance of your apartment.
Some of the Highlights Include;
The Marina Walk - a 7km palm-lined waterfront walkway dotted with global cafes, food outlets and restaurants.
The Walk at Jumeirah Beach Residence - is a popular promenade where you can shop, dine and stroll by the sea. The buzzing beachside boulevard offers the opportunity to satisfy your retail cravings with an array of fashion, home and handicraft shops and boutiques.
The Beach – adjacent to the JBR Walk, The Beach is a waterfront complex with retail stores, restaurants, bars and clubs with a sandy beach. There’s plenty to do at The Beach, from a wide selection of shoreline dining and shopping to watersports such as parasailing and wakeboarding. There is also banana boat rides and even a train for kids to enjoy. If you’d prefer to keep your feet dry, you can take a camel ride along the beach with the iconic city landscape in the background. There’s a 600m running track, outdoor gym and beach volleyball court if you’re keen to work up a sweat – otherwise, just book a ticket and catch the latest blockbuster at the adjoining cinema complex.
Marina Mall - the large shopping facility has four levels and 390,000 square feet. There are 140 stores, 21 dining options and a Children's play area. It is one of the main shopping malls in Dubai
Ain Dubai – technically not part of the Marina but is located towards the end of Marina on Bluewaters Island and is the world's tallest Ferris wheel. The Ain Dubai takes more than half hour for one complete rotation. It stands at more than 800 feet tall — nearly double the London Eye's height. Ain Dubai offers unrivalled 360-degree views of the Marina skyline in a relaxing 38-minute journey. With 48 air-conditioned passenger cabins, 1,750 visitors can take in the breathtaking experience in one revolution. Ain Dubai showcases the city’s beautiful coastline, Dubai Marina's sleek sights and dreamy glimpses of famous landmarks such as Burj Al Arab, Palm Jumeirah and the Burj Khalifa. Open day and night, visitors can take in two sides of Dubai on a ride – its skyscrapers shining bright in the sun’s rays or the landscape gradually glittering into the night as darkness falls. Ain Dubai is more than an elevated vantage point for transforming city perspectives; the wheel’s base serves as a world-class entertainment zone with a large LED screen mounted on it.
Hit the beach
Dubai Marina’s two primary beaches are The Beach and The Beach at Jumeirah Beach Residence (JBR). Both are family-friendly, with activities for children ranging from inflatable waterparks to miniature trains and even camel rides, yet offer plenty for adults, too.
