Basking in the glittering Arabian Gulf, Al Marjan Islands are the first manmade island project in Ras Al Khaimah, one of the seven United Arab Emirates. Ras Al Khaimah means "The Top of the Tent" in English, and from this scenic location, 54 miles from Dubai, the fertile and varied region is laid out before you. Picturesque plains give way to a captivating 40-mile-long coastline and dazzling golden sand dunes. Olive groves, juicy pomegranates and apricots flourish alongside fig trees in the nearby Hajar Mountains.

Ras Al Khaimah Airport and the city of Ras Al Khaimah's dynamic urban culture are just 15 minutes drive from Al Marjan. City life is vibrant and relaxed with plenty of shopping for every taste. Outdoor enthusiasts won't have trouble finding things to do either, the city is surrounded by lush golf courses and desert safaris and adjacent to every type of water sport.

Al Marjan Islands offer an extraordinary opportunity to the discerning developer. Situated three miles off the emirates southwest coast, these swirls of sandy beaches ensure clean water, private beach access and unique architectural opportunities for townhouses, hotels and more.

Natural stone breakwaters found along each of Al Marjan's curves enhance marine life growth and promote island longevity. The islands extend 2.8 miles out into the gulf, offering seclusion for beachfront property and shelter for resort accommodations.

This is a collection of islands divided into four parts and Island Three - currently offered for sale - is unique among them. The 89.10 acre island created with deep sea sand and other coarse earth materials is the only one in the group with a marina. Guests with pleasure crafts and yachts have the perfect place to moor their vessels in teh distinctive circular docking station.

In addition to luxury townhouses and five-star hotel complexes, Island Three would also be ideal for the construction of a world-class sports facility. The island's stunningly designed beach arcs offer incredible vantage points out over the Arabian Gulf and would provide hotel and resort views without equal. Complete island ownership permits a seamless company branding opportunity with premier locations for private beach villas across the terrain.

The Al Marjan Island project is the first of its kind in this ambitious emirate, making the sale of Island Three by the Rakia Investment Authority an exceptionally rare opportunity. Tourism to this region has increased by 65% over the last 5-7 years and buyers from around the globe can rest knowing that the land is 100% freehold and there is no corporate, income, sales or export tax in Ras Al Khaimah.
