What you need to know about Maritime City

Sitting on a prime reclaimed peninsula between Port Rashid and Dubai Dry Docks, Dubai Maritime City (DMC) is the region’s go-to hub for all things maritime.
Seamlessly connected to Dubai’s main road network, including direct access to Sheikh Zayed Road (E11). This purpose-built waterfront zone is designed to cater to the entire marine industry, from ship repairs and yacht manufacturing to innovative research and education.
Spanning 249 hectares, DMC is divided into six key districts: the Maritime Centre, the Industrial Precinct, the Academic Quarter, the Marina District, the Harbour Residence, and the Harbour Offices. Each zone is crafted to support businesses, technical expertise, and trade, making it the only specialized maritime cluster in the UAE and the wider GCC.
With over 280 registered companies, DMC is a powerhouse for maritime commerce, offering direct access to the sea, airports, and public transport. A dedicated causeway links it to Dubai’s fast-moving expressways, ensuring smooth connectivity for businesses and professionals alike. Whether you're in the industry or simply fascinated by the world of marine trade, DMC is where the action happens.

Location

Dubai Maritime City is strategically located between Port Rashid and Dubai Dry Docks, just north of the Creek district.
It's only 1 km from Jumeirah Beach Road, 1.5 km from Bur Dubai, and 2.5 km from the Shindagha Tunnel. Sheikh Zayed Road is 3 km away, and Dubai International Airport is within 10 km. A dedicated causeway connects DMC directly to Dubai's main roads.

Properties

If you're looking for premium coastal apartment living. Dubai Maritime City offers a wide range of sea-facing apartments, from stylish studios to spacious 4-bedroom units, along with a limited selection of duplexes and penthouses. The residential buildings combine elegant design with exclusive amenities and stunning views of the Arabian Gulf.


Each development brings something unique to the waterfront lifestyle. ANWA by Omniyat was the first tower built in the area, featuring sleek glass façades and direct sea views. Mar Casa by Deyaar blends high-end interiors with resort-style wellness facilities. Meanwhile, Oceanz by Danube stands out with its Tonino Lamborghini–designed interiors and vibrant social spaces. Other notable projects like Anwa Aria and Saria offer luxury apartments, wellness centers, rooftop pools, and modern fitness studios, all steps away from Dubai’s maritime core.
