In partnership with Dubai Holding, D-Marin will operate a new Mediterranean-inspired marina set to open in Dubai: Port De La Mer. This state-of-the-art marina is the fifth D-Marin marina in Dubai, solidifying the Group’s position as an international destination for luxury yacht owners.
D-Marin, the selection of premium marinas across the Mediterranean and Gulf regions, has signed an agreement to operate the luxury marina located at the tip of the northern peninsula of La Mer. The marina has been designed in a unique Mediterranean style and provides a high level of marina excellence through premium customer experiences in a luxury setting.
Port De La Mer promises a vibrant yet laid back lifestyle, set within a unique island retreat in one of Dubai’s most coveted locations. Features include an array of premium dining, shopping, entertainment, leisure, and hospitality amenities, alongside panoramic views of both the open ocean and stunning skyline.
D-Marin brings its sector-leading approach and vision of marina management to Port De La Mer, further increasing Dubai’s appeal as a yachting hub.
The marina will benefit from D-Marin’s commitment to environmental, social and governance (ESG) principles, aligned with UN Global Compact and Sustainable Development Group. This includes D-Marin’s commitment to a 42% carbon footprint reduction by 2030 through participation in the international Science Based Targets initiative.
D-Marin also plans to implement its innovative digital solutions which provide an enhanced and effortless yachting experience to customers.
Phase one of Port De La Mer is set to open in Q4 2024 and will include 32 berths for yachts up to 40m in length overall. The marina will be extended to facilitate a total of 160-berths for yachts up to 80 meters in the following years.
Selcuk Balci, Managing Director at D-Marin Dubai, said:
“Port De La Mer sets new standards for what is expected from a marina. The entire project surrounding Port De La Mer is inspired by the Mediterranean including the residential communities, recreational areas and the marina itself. It is a truly unique marina for yacht owners in Dubai. We look forward to working in partnership with Dubai Holding whilst showcasing the highest standard of marina experiences and innovations."On this occasion, Khalid Al Malik, Managing Director of Dubai Holding, said:
