Dubai Maritime City

Dubai Maritime City is a mixed-use waterfront peninsula developed by DP World between Port Rashid and Dubai Dry Docks, combining a working ship-repair precinct with residential towers, offices and a marina. Newer buildings such as ANWA, Mar Casa and Oceanz offer sea-facing studios through to four-bedroom apartments, close to Bur Dubai and Downtown Dubai. It suits buyers and tenants wanting waterfront apartment living with quick access to established parts of the city, rather than a resort-style island, and who are comfortable living alongside an active working harbour.

Master developer: DP World
