The waterfront Downtown never had — a marina and a swimmable beach, ten minutes from the heart of the city.
Where you'll buy
Almost all released homes sit in three waterfront pockets of the masterplan. This is where the listings — and the rental demand — are today.
Community 01
Branded residences and twin towers with full Burj Khalifa and Creek Tower views. Premium finishes, hotel service, and the strongest resale story on the masterplan.
Community 02
A 700m swimmable beach with low-rise towers — Bayshore, Sunset, Breeze, Address. The most family-loved corner of the Creek, and the easiest to rent.
Community 03
The newest releases, on the mainland edge bordering the Ras Al Khor flamingo sanctuary. Water and wetland views, fast highway access, and attractive 80/20 payment plans — where off-plan investors are buying now.
The masterplan
Emaar divides Dubai Creek Harbour’s 550 hectares into ten purpose-built districts — each masterplanned to be self-contained, with homes, retail and services within a short walk. Several are still under development, delivering in phases.
The most developed zone. High-rise waterfront towers around Creek Marina — Dubai Creek Residences, Harbour Views, The Grand and Address Harbour Point.
A 700m swimmable urban beach lined with low-rise residences — Bayshore, Sunset, Surf, Lotus and more. The most family-loved corner of the Creek.
On the mainland edge bordering Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary — water and wetland views with quick highway access. Home to Creek Bay and Creek Haven.
The commercial engine of the masterplan — offices and corporate space designed to anchor the wider community.
Built along the extended Dubai Creek, with pedestrian promenades and waterfront walkways — home to The Cove.
The city-centre hub — future home of Dubai Creek Tower and the community’s cultural and entertainment venues.
Leafy boulevards and sports facilities — the green northern gateway to the island.
A roughly 30-hectare green heart for quieter, park-side family living — the Island Park residences front it directly.
A recreational zone blending residential buildings with wide, open landscaped community spaces.
The green northern entry point into the masterplan, home to the community's first school — landscaped gateway plazas linking the Discovery Loop to the wider city.
The next chapter
Creek Island, Creek Beach and Greengate are built or building — the rest of a 200,000-resident city is still to come, with a curated public realm and full civic infrastructure planned in from day one.
The discovery loop
A 7km self-shaded promenade threads every district together — a walking and micro-mobility spine linking nodal gardens, plazas and neighbourhood centres end to end.
The landscaped northern gateway into the masterplan.
A waterside district park at the community's edge.
A sunken garden plaza framed by tiered planting.
Where the creek's waters meet the public realm.
Rock, maze and sensory gardens around a central water playground.
A quiet promenade facing Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary.
The loop's dramatic landmark node to the south.
The civic heart of the loop, beside the central Icon tower.
Community infrastructure
Including Juma'a and local mosques woven through every district.
Planned within walking distance of home, across the masterplan.
Early-years care integrated at the neighbourhood level.
Proposed, backed by 20 clinics for everyday community healthcare.
Community-level healthcare within every district.
Hospitality proposed across the masterplan, anchoring tourism demand.
The UAE's national tree lines the Discovery Loop and district gardens — low-maintenance, high-shade planting drawn from the region's own landscape.
Local plant species and the creek's own ecology carried into every street and plaza, not just the parks.
Metro momentum
Dubai Creek Harbour will be home to the "Emaar Properties Station" on the Dubai Metro Blue Line — an 11,000 sqm landmark built to handle 160,000 passengers a day, with Emaar holding naming rights for its first 10 years of operation.
