Rashid Yachts & Marina

Rashid Yachts & Marina Luxury Living

Rashid Yachts & Marina (Mina Rashid / Port Rashid), formerly known as Port Rashid or Mina Rashid, is one of Dubai’s most exciting waterfront developments, created by  Emaar Properties in partnership with P&O Marinas.

The district occupies a unique place in Dubai’s history. Port Rashid was the city’s first modern commercial port and played a key role in transforming Dubai into a global trade hub. Today, the area is undergoing a remarkable transformation into a next-generation waterfront destination.

Unlike many newly developed communities, Rashid Yachts & Marina combines three highly sought-after qualities: waterfront living, proximity to the city center, and a limited supply of premium coastal real estate.

For investors, it represents one of Emaar’s most attractive waterfront projects in recent years. For residents, it offers a marina lifestyle of international standards just minutes from Downtown Dubai.

Connectivity & Transportations
  • One of Rashid Yachts & Marina’s strongest advantages is its central location.
  • The district is positioned between historic Dubai, Bur Dubai, Deira, Jumeirah, and Downtown Dubai.
  • Residents benefit from:
  • Direct access to Sheikh Rashid Road
  • Convenient connectivity to Al Mina Road
  • Quick access to Downtown Dubai
  • Easy connections to DIFC and Business Bay
  • Close proximity to Dubai Cruise Terminal
  • Extensive taxi and ride-hailing services
  • Thanks to its strategic location, residents enjoy the benefits of waterfront living without sacrificing access to Dubai’s main business districts.
Island Access / Driving
  • Downtown Dubai / Burj Khalifa – approximately 15 minutes
  • DIFC – approximately 15 minutes
  • Business Bay – approximately 15–20 minutes

Amenities & Infrastructure
  • The centerpiece of the development is Rashid Marina, one of the largest and most advanced yacht marinas in the region.
  • Upon completion, the marina will accommodate hundreds of yachts, including superyachts up to 100 meters in length.

  • Waterfront promenades

  • One of the district’s most distinctive attractions is the legendary Queen Elizabeth 2 (QE2) ocean liner, which now operates as a floating hotel and museum.
  • The community also benefits from close proximity to the historic districts of Al Fahidi, Dubai Creek, and the traditional souks of Deira, creating a unique blend of contemporary waterfront living and Dubai’s cultural heritage.
Beaches & Lifestyle
  • Although Rashid Yachts & Marina does not feature the extensive beachfront found in communities such as Palm Jumeirah or Dubai Islands, it offers a different type of waterfront experience centered around marina living.
  • The lifestyle here revolves around:
  • Yacht ownership and marina culture
  • Waterfront promenades
  • Restaurants overlooking the harbor
  • Boating and marine activities
  • A sophisticated Mediterranean-style atmosphere
  • For this reason, many investors compare the future character of the district to prestigious marina destinations found across the Mediterranean and the French Riviera.
Property Types & Prices
  • One-bedroom apartments within Rashid Yachts & Marina typically start from approximately AED 1.7 million.
  • The average price of a quality one-bedroom residence ranges between AED 2 million and AED 3.5 million, depending on the project, floor level, apartment size, and marina views.
  • Properties with direct marina views generally command premium pricing.
Investment Potential
  • Rashid Yachts & Marina is considered one of Dubai’s most promising waterfront investment destinations.
  • The area is particularly suitable for:
  • Long-term capital appreciation
  • Early-stage waterfront investments
  • Premium long-term rentals
  • Luxury short-term holiday rentals
  • Owner-occupier purchases
  • One of the project’s greatest advantages is the combination of the Emaar brand, a prime central location, and a limited supply of waterfront real estate.
  • Unlike Dubai Marina, where the majority of development has already been completed, Rashid Yachts & Marina remains in an active growth phase, providing additional potential for future value appreciation.
Why Are Investors Paying Attention to Rashid Yachts & Marina?

Conclusion

Rashid Yachts & Marina is one of Dubai’s most exciting waterfront developments and one of Emaar’s most significant projects in recent years.
For investors, the district offers a rare combination of a central location, world-class marina infrastructure, limited property supply, and long-term growth potential.
For residents, it provides the opportunity to enjoy a sophisticated marina lifestyle, sea views, waterfront promenades, and exceptional connectivity, all within 15 minutes of Downtown Dubai and the city’s major business districts.
