A group of “Gateway Towers” seem to be located at Palm Jebel Ali’s peak. Where Atlantis The Palm Hotel is supposed to be situated! At the summit of the new Palm, there will be a “celebration village” next to the Gateway Towers. The new massive project covers an area of about 13.4 square kilometres.
One of the primary distinctions between the original Palm Jumeirah and the new one, which is segmented, seems to be that the crescent’s two ends will be connected to the mainland. Hopefully, more traffic will result from that. A new master plan for Dubai beaches, unveiled by HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum in May 2023, calls for a 400 per cent expansion of the city’s public beaches. By 2040, the public beaches in the emirate will stretch from 21 km to 105 km in length.
