Description

The Palm Deira is an artificial archipelago under construction, located alongside Deira town.

The largest of the three Palm Islands, Palm Deira on completion will cover an area greater than the city of Paris. Featuring 8,000 two-storey houses, villas, and town homes, it is a thriving city in itself offering world class island living. This unique man-made palm-shaped island will consist of a trunk, a crown with 41 fronds, and a surrounding crescent island that will form a water breaker.

The island will consist of residential property, marinas, shopping malls, sports facilities, clubs, and hospitality offerings. It is expected to be completed by 2015.
