This currently undeveloped private island off the coast of Dubai has the potential to be developed into a resort, house private villas or a waterfront home of your dreams. The total island is 11.61 acres (505,925 sq.ft.), of which 5.26 acres (229,325 sq.ft.) is the upland area, 6.97 acres (303,555 sq.ft.) is the built up area and 6.35 acres (276,600 sq.ft.) is the submerged area.

The World Islands are a collection of man-made islands shaped into the continents of the world, located off the coast of Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. It consists of 300 small private artificial islands divided into four categories - private homes, estate homes, dream resorts, and community islands.

Each island ranges from just under 6 acres to just over 20 acres in size (250,000 to 900,000 square feet or 23,226 to 83,613 square metres), with 50 to 100 metres (164 to 328 feet) of water between each island. It covers a total area of 9 kilometres (5.4 miles) in length and 6 kilometres (3.6 miles) in width, surrounded by an oval shaped breakwater. The only means of transportation between the islands will be by marine or air transport.

The World Islands is located 4 kilometres off the shore of Jumeirah, close to the Palm Jumeirah, between Burj Al Arab and Port Rashid at approximately 25 degrees 13 North and 55 degrees 10 East.

The unparalleled opportunities that can be found on The World wouldn't be complete without absolute peace of mind. While the islands are created for privacy and exclusivity, the thoughtful infrastructure is designed for the safety and convenience of investors, residents and visitors - an infrastructure that allows you to relax and leave the mainland behind.
