01 / Why Bluewaters Island is different

A small island with one of Dubai's most famous skylines

Bluewaters Island opened in late 2018 just off JBR and is home to Ain Dubai, the world's largest observation wheel. Its waterfront retail area, The Wharf, was launched with 132 shops, restaurants and cafés, alongside two Caesars hotels and ten residential buildings.

Most people arrive as visitors, walking over from JBR or staying in the hotels, plus a smaller, affluent resident community. Venues here sell an occasion: a sunset dinner, a beach club day or a night with Ain Dubai in the background.

What works for restaurants in Bluewaters Island

Bluewaters restaurants sell an experience as much as a meal. Ranking for "restaurants on Bluewaters", sunset and Ain Dubai content and creator visits turn passing JBR visitors into bookings.

Everything is measured in bookings, covers and orders.
How much does restaurant marketing cost in Dubai?
