About Dubai Islands
Dubai Islands is a group of reclaimed islands lying off Deira's coast, developed by Nakheel. The project began in 2004 as Palm Deira, was scaled down and renamed Deira Islands in 2013, and took its current name in 2022, when Nakheel released a new master plan. That plan divides the destination into five isles, called Central, Marina, Shore, Golf and Elite, combining resort hotels, homes, beaches, golf courses, parks and retail. Nakheel gives the total as more than 60 km of waterfront and over 20 km of beaches, one of which holds Blue Flag certification. Three hotels are already open, while much of the residential stock is still being built. The islands appeal to buyers who want a beachfront home near Deira, and to investors following early-stage, off-plan waterfront launches.
Dubai Islands connects to the mainland by road over bridges, the first of which opened in December 2016, and Nakheel names the new Infinity Bridge as the link between the islands and the city. Within the project, bridges link the individual isles, and the master plan allows for waterfront access by cruise and water transport. By Nakheel's estimates, the drive takes about 10 minutes to Gold Souq Metro Station, 20 minutes to Dubai International Airport, 24 minutes to Downtown Dubai and 33 minutes to Business Bay. Hotel RIU Dubai, Centara Mirage Beach Resort Dubai and Park Regis by Prince Dubai Islands already operate on the islands, and the Centara resort includes venues such as Sands Beach Club and Suan Bua Thai Restaurant. Planned features include the Deira Night Souk, a market designed to run 1.9 km along the coast, and a Rixos hotel and residences with a 700-metre beach.

Island Life by the Gulf
Living on Dubai Islands centres on the water. The long beaches, golf courses and parks in Nakheel's plan are designed for an outdoor routine of swimming, golf and evening walks along the shore, while the open resort hotels already have restaurants and, at Centara, a beach club. Nakheel lists wellness facilities, entertainment hubs, shopping centres, cafés and Souk Al Marfa among the amenities across the five isles. Handover dates on Profound run to 2030, so many residential projects are still under construction, and buyers should check which facilities are open on the islands when they plan a move.
