RASHID YACHTS AND MARINA COMMUNITY OVERVIEW

Baystar is set within Rashid Yachts & Marina, a luxury master-planned community developed by Emaar. Anchored by a world-class marina with over 430 berths for superyachts, the district combines waterfront living with culture, leisure, and retail. Designed as a future coastal destination for Dubai, the community blends modern residential buildings with palm-lined promenades, landscaped parks, and artfully integrated public spaces.

Cultural landmarks like the QE2 Hotel, waterfront theatre, and curated event spaces bring a lifestyle dimension beyond the typical marina experience. With ongoing development, and projects such as Ocean Point, Seascape and Clearpoint well under way, Rashid Yachts & Marina is set to become a landmark coastal precinct with strong long-term value.

 

DEVELOPER OVERVIEW – EMAAR PROPERTIES
