A new marina district in Mina Rashid, the old port where the liner QE2 is moored as a hotel. Emaar builds every project we list here, so you buy into one developer's plan, not the mix of developers in Dubai Maritime City next door.
1.3 kmin a straight line to Al Ghubaiba metro (Green Line)
About 4%gross rental yield on 1- and 2-bed flats, from thin DLD data
2027 to 2028when most of the Emaar projects we list are due
This is the part of the old port closest to the metro and the old town. Al Ghubaiba on the Green Line is 1.3 km from the area centre in a straight line, against 2.4 km from Dubai Maritime City, and City Centre Al Shindagha is 1.3 km. Every project we list starts at one bedroom, from about AED 1.3 million. Most are due in 2027 and 2028. The catch: almost every sale here is off-plan, and DLD puts gross yields near 4%, so this is a place to live in more than a place to rent out.

Walk
Inside the new district there is little to walk to yet, and our map shows no park within 2.5 km in a straight line. The walks are in the old town: Al Shindagha and the creek are just east of the port, and the souks of Deira are across the water.
The QE2
Mina Rashid
The old Cunard liner Queen Elizabeth 2, moored in the port as a hotel since 2018. It is the landmark that gives the district its address.
Al Shindagha
Bur Dubai
Restored old houses and museums at the mouth of Dubai Creek, the old quarter on the port's doorstep.
The Gold Souk
Deira
Across the creek in Deira. Gold Souq station is 2.3 km away in a straight line, two stops from Al Ghubaiba on the Green Line.

Swim
There is no beach in the district, and none on our map within 3.5 km in a straight line. Most of the projects we list mention a pool, but check before you assume one.

Deira Islands Beach
3.9 km
On Dubai Islands (formerly Deira Islands), north across the water, 3.9 km away in a straight line. You drive there through Deira.
La Mer
About 6 km
A public beach in Jumeirah, south along the coast, with sand, cafés and a water park. It is about 6 km away in a straight line.

Eat
The new district's own shops and cafés are not on our map yet, so for now you shop in the old town. City Centre Al Shindagha, 1.3 km away in a straight line, is the only mall on our map within 2 km.
City Centre Al Shindagha
1.3 km
The nearest mall, on the Bur Dubai side of the port. The weekly shop is a short taxi ride, not a drive across town.
Naif Souq
2.6 km, in Deira
A covered market across the creek, 2.6 km away in a straight line, for fabrics, spices and household goods.

What homes cost
Off-plan apartments sold most often here, at a median of AED 2,486,000 in the last 12 months.

Who is building Rashid Yachts and Marina, and what can I buy?
Emaar builds every project we list here. Nearly all are flats with 1 to 3 bedrooms, from about 720 to 3,100 sq ft. Seascape and Ocean Point also offer townhouses, Clearpoint and Bayline duplexes, and Marina Views a penthouse. With one developer, you judge one track record, not a dozen as in Dubai Maritime City next door.
When will Rashid Yachts and Marina be finished?
Not for years. Seascape is due soon, in December 2026. Most of the others are due in 2027 and 2028, and Fior 1 and Aurea in June 2030. DLD records this district and Dubai Maritime City as one area, and its register there shows many projects not started yet, so expect building work around you after you move in.
What will a 1-bed off-plan flat cost in Rashid Yachts and Marina?
In the projects we list, every one starts at one bedroom, from about AED 1.3 million at Seascape to about AED 2.3 million at Aurea, with most around AED 1.7 million. Prices were checked in November 2026 and change as units sell. DLD puts the median off-plan 1-bed sale at about AED 2.41 million in the year to September 2026, or about AED 3,040 per sq ft, but that figure also covers Dubai Maritime City. Few ready flats sell, and gross yields on 1- and 2-beds are about 4%.
Is there a metro in Rashid Yachts and Marina?
Not inside the district. Al Ghubaiba and Al Ras on the Green Line are 1.3 and 1.6 km from the area centre in a straight line; the projects we list are spread up to about 2 km from that centre, so check the walk from your building. By car, Al Mina Road runs along the port, and Infinity Bridge crosses the creek to Deira. Dubai World Trade Centre is 5.5 km away in a straight line.
Is Rashid Yachts and Marina good for families?
For some. Schools are a drive away: the nearest on our map are New Academy School (US), 2.5 km away in a straight line, and Ambassador School in Mankhool, 3.1 km. Aster Hospital is 2.5 km away. The nearest park is 2.8 km away, so for a lawn or a playground you drive. Families who want a door to the street can look at the townhouses in Seascape and Ocean Point.
