Inside Dubai Creek Harbour

Emaar's second Downtown sits across the creek from the wildlife sanctuary, planned around a marina, a future retail district and (eventually) the Dubai Creek Tower site. Handover districts around Creek Beach and the marina have established a genuine resident base, but the market remains off-plan-weighted and priced off Downtown comparables at a discount. Buyers are betting on infrastructure catch-up, the bridge links and metro extension, closing that gap. Flamingo views and Emaar covenant quality underpin the rental market.

Getting around

Ras Al Khor Road and the Creek crossing bridges; Downtown about 15 minutes and DXB under 15 minutes.

Living in Dubai Creek Harbour

Dubai Creek Harbour is an Emaar waterfront district on the historic Dubai Creek beside the Ras Al Khor flamingo sanctuary, planned as a future city centre with a promenade, marina and central park. It is made up of brand new high rise apartments with creek and skyline views, and attracts professionals, couples and investors who want fresh waterfront living minutes from Downtown. The community is still maturing, so it feels calm, walkable and quiet rather than fully built out.
