The Palm Jebel
Ali is the middle-sized island of the three Palm
Islands (Palm Jumeirah,
Palm Jebel Ali and Palm
Deira). It is located on the Jebel Ali coastal
area of the emirate of Dubai, in the United Arab
Emirates (UAE). The unique man-made palm-shaped
island will consist of a trunk, a crown with 17
fronds, and a surrounding crescent island that will
form a water-breaker.
The Jebel Ali Palm is more of an
entertainment destination for both adults and children,
which caters to both residents and tourists. The
island will also be 50% larger than the Palm
Jumeirah, and will include six marinas, a 'Sea
Village', a water theme park and water homes built
on stilts between the fronds and the crescent. Construction
began on the Palm Jebel Ali in October 2002.
