Similar to The Palm Jumeirah, this second island, Palm Jebel Ali will also be based around the shape of a palm tree, with a Trunk, 17 Fronds and Crescent forming the breakwater. With a considerable number of new elements added to this island, including six marinas, a 'Sea Village' and Water Homes built on stilts; it is set to become a major global destination.

Most outstanding of the new elements are the 1060 Water Homes being built on stilts, which when viewed from above spells out a verse from an Arabic poem written by HH General Sheikh Mohammed.

The Water homes will form a 12km chain between the Fronds and the Crescent; the extension of the Crescents size to 15.5km with a break at the top for boats to enter; the modification to the ends of the Crescent to include 'fingers' whereby the luxury apartment blocks will be located. Two smaller 'pocket islands' just off each end of the Crescent will host shopping facilities for residents daily needs.

The Water Homes are being positioned as elevated retreat homes and will be built in a pattern to form the verse of Sheikh Mohammed's poem. Providing an unparalleled residential or holiday location, they will be made from concrete foundation poles and a wooden structure. The depth of the water below will be approximately 8 to 10 metres and each home will cover a built up area of 3875 square feet. Boardwalk access to a common parking area and private moorings for personal boats will be provided for each 4-bedroom Water Home.

A 'Sea Village' theme will feature on the Trunk, which measures 2.4 kilometres in length and 450 metres in width. Within the 'Sea Village' - the region's only sea aquarium - will be world-class attractions like killer whales and other deep-sea wildlife. It is certain to become a tourist hotspot for young and old alike. Eight hotels up to eight storeys high and with a maximum of 400 rooms will provide unsurpassed ocean views and proximity to the leisure activities of the 'Sea Village'.

In total, there will be approximately 2000 Signature Villas, Garden Homes and Town Homes, together with several luxury apartment buildings and 1060 Water Homes on The Palm, Jebel Ali, which will be 7.5 kilometres in width and 7 kilometres in length.

With the addition of Water Homes, four more marinas and a 'Sea Village' boasting the Middle East's first sea aquarium, it is set to become a major tourist attraction. Luxury hotels, apartments and villas with sea views will ensure it becomes a desired place to reside, whether you are a full-time resident or part-time holiday maker.

Estimated Completion Date: 2012
