Dubai Marina
Dubai Marina is a waterfront community of apartment towers built around a man-made canal. Emaar Properties is the master developer.
Homes are apartments, from waterfront apartments to penthouses with marina and skyline views. The Dubai Statistics Center estimated the population at 66,045 at 31 December 2023.
Sobha Realty Metro Station on the Red Line, the former Dubai Marina station, and the tram along Al Sufouh Road serve the area. Our team can help you compare towers by distance to the station, the Marina Walk or Dubai Marina Mall.

Location and access
Dubai Marina is reached from Sheikh Zayed Road, and Al Sufouh Road also runs past it.
Area guides put the drive to Dubai International Airport at roughly 25 to 30 minutes, to Downtown Dubai at roughly 15 to 20 minutes, and to Al Maktoum International Airport at roughly 29 to 35 minutes. Times depend on traffic.
Metro, tram and getting around
Sobha Realty Metro Station on the Red Line was known as Dubai Marina station until the RTA renamed it on 9 August 2021. The neighbouring stations are DMCC and Al Fardan Exchange. Area guides may still use the old name, so check which one a listing refers to.
The RTA says the Dubai Tram links Dubai Metro and the Palm Monorail and runs along Al Sufouh Road and Jumeirah Beach Road. Emaar adds that several bus routes serve the area.
Schools near Dubai Marina
No school inside Dubai Marina is confirmed in our research. Two area guides name Dubai British School as close by.
If one school decides where you live, send us its name and our team will shortlist Dubai Marina towers by how long the trip to that school takes.

Emaar describes Dubai Marina Mall as a 150,000 sqm retail and entertainment mall serving the community. Our team can tell you which towers sit closest to it.
Pier 7 and Marina Walk restaurants
Emaar describes Pier 7 as a purpose-built culinary destination with different restaurant and lounge themes. Its page names Abd El Wahab, O Cacti Mexican House and Cocktail Bar, Cargo and Atelier M.
Emaar also says the Marina Walk offers a wide range of cuisines, from casual cafes to fine dining.
Marina Walk and outdoor spaces
Emaar describes almost eight kilometres of landscaped public walkways around the marina, with water features, benches and children's play areas. It also lists jogging tracks along the marina.
We have not confirmed a named public park inside Dubai Marina.

Dubai Marina landmarks and neighbouring places
Emaar's Dubai Marina entries include the Address Dubai Marina hotel, along with Dubai Marina Mall, Pier 7 and the Marina Walk.
Jumeirah Beach Residence (JBR) and The Walk sit alongside Dubai Marina. Bluewaters Island, Dubai Harbour, Emaar Beachfront and Jumeirah Lakes Towers are nearby. Each is a separate place, so a listing there has a different address from a Dubai Marina one.
