Dubai's Man-made Islands: Everything You Need to Know
"A palm-shaped artificial island with a trunk and 17 fronds wrapped by an almost seven-mile crescent, developed from 2001 and now home to luxurious residences and hotels. It's accessible via an underwater tunnel from the mainland or the Palm Monorail, features a mixed-use tower with a 52nd-floor observation deck that links directly to a large mall with more than 300 shops, and even offers skydiving vantage points for dramatic aerial views of the island's distinctive shape." - Danielle Berman Danielle Berman Danielle Berman is a lifelong Jersey girl, travel journalist, and marketing professional in the hospitality and publishing space.
