Reem makes waves as flooding of marina commences at Najmat, Abu Dhabi

A significant milestone in the creation of Abu Dhabi's new urban waterside living project was achieved on 15 July 2009 as Reem Developers, a subsidiary of Reem Investments, commenced flooding of the first man-made marina in Reem Island. Marina @ Najmat is a unique centerpiece of Najmat, the Star of Abu Dhabi, an iconic master plan development on Reem Island. The beautiful five hectare berthing area for yachts and luxury boats forming a picturesque focus for the surrounding communities is expected to take up to 170 berths ranging in length from 7 to 18 metres.

Marina @ Najmat will enhance Reem Island's appeal as one of the most attractive, vibrant and compelling lifestyle destinations in the region.

The marina will feature two exquisite hotels with boardwalks and ample berthing space in addition to waterfront shops, cafes, restaurants and public art galleries.

Najmat Abu Dhabi occupies the prime seafront of Reem Island - a special investment zone - and the marina, canal and water features are designed to ensure that all residents enjoy the waterfront. Environmental concerns are addressed through water flushing and safeguards for marine life. These features make it one of the best waterfront developments in the region.
