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.

How paid media works in Bluewaters Island

Ads for Bluewaters work best aimed at visitors staying in JBR, the Marina and Palm, timed for sunsets and weekends.
