The Palm Island Dubai
Monday, 26 March 2007 11:41

The Palm Islands in Dubai are the three largest artificial islands in the world, being constructed by Nakheel properties in the United Arab Emirates. Each settlement will be in the shape of a palm tree, topped with a crescent, and will have residential communities and resorts built upon them. It is possible to make these islands due to the wide continental shelf off the Dubai coast, and the relatively shallow depth of the Persian Gulf.

 The islands were designed as part of the plan to develop tourism in Dubai against the eventual depletion of the emirate's oil reserves, which are expected to be depleted in the second decade of the 21st century. The goal is to become one of the biggest areas in the world for tourism as a means of diversifying the economy.

The Palm Jumeirah:

 A tribute to the cherished date tree (also referred to as the "bride of orchard"), THE PALM (JUMEIRAH) offers the best of island living. This man-made island is in a shape of a palm tree and offers 5 star hotels, villas, townhouses, and apartments. In addition to these amenities, there is also numerous forms of entertainment that surround this paradise.

This island is so large that it can be seen from outer space. Therefore, often referred to as the eight wonder
of the world, this island is the first of its kind and brings a new meaning of class and lifestyle not only to the
people of this region, but to the world! Own a spectacular home, vacation at a waterfront resort, shop, eat,
swim, sail, visit a theme park, and enjoy the variety of entertainment options. Relax or Reinvigorate.
Welcome to THE PALM!

 Completion Date: End of 2006
