DUBAI CREEK HARBOUR

The iconic waterfront, Dubai Creek Harbour, is located just at a distance of 10 minutes drive from Downtown Dubai. Visit this place built at the cornerstone of Dubai’s heritage, The Dubai Creek. Historically, the creek had a natural harbour from where Dubai had begun its expansion into the modern-day city that we see today. 

Visiting this place, you will feel delighted looking at the still-developing smart city with its residential units, offices, commercial spaces, waterfront eco-resorts, a marina and yacht club, and many more. The development has entwined all these with commercial, cultural and educational amenities.

You will feel amazed by looking at the modern city, representing the next level of contemporary living, that has harmonised responsible city living with an awareness of sustainable biodiversity. In recent days, the Dubai Creek Harbour has been developed into a smart, green city, preserving both its environment and cultural heritage. 

One of the stars of the Dubai Creek Harbour lies in Dubai Square, located at its heart. The Square is the place that offers a unique dining experience, world-class leisure attractions and ultimate retail experiences to its visitors. Feel exciting shopping at a place where technological innovation has impregnated every aspect of ‘omnichannel retailing’, giving you the choice to shop online, via phones or physically. 

Another star attraction under development is the Dubai Creek Tower, the centrepiece of Dubai Creek Harbour, which is expected to be even taller than Burj Khalifa. You may check out the under-construction place which has already become popular owing to its expected height and architectural design of a budding lily flower.  

Relish the captivating view of the harbour which will also give you a glimpse of the wildlife haven at Ras Al Khor wildlife sanctuary, located next to the harbour. Spend some time relaxing while gazing at the breathtaking view of the waters. If you visit at dusk, you will be mesmerised looking at the sun setting in the waters in the backdrop of skyscrapers.
