Fahid Island will be home to beaches, cycling tracks, and a five-star resort.
In a city known for its luxury and innovation, Abu Dhabi is about to take self-care to a whole new level with the launch of Fahid Island, the capital’s first-ever wellness-focused coastal destination. Designed to promote mindful living, this serene retreat is carefully curated for those who crave balance, nature, and elevated wellbeing.
Backed by real estate giant Aldar, Fahid Island is ideally positioned between Saadiyat Island and Yas Island, offering access to cultural icons and entertainment hubs. Spanning an impressive 2.7 million square metres, the development dedicates nearly 30% of its footprint to green, open spaces, underscoring its commitment to creating a more grounded, nature-first community.
The island boasts 11 kilometres of scenic coastline, including 4.6 kilometres of pristine beaches and protected mangrove forests. At the heart of the project lies the 10-kilometre Berm Park, a shaded wellness corridor complete with running trails, cycling paths, and hydration stations. Whether you’re hitting the track or taking a leisurely stroll, you’re never more than a five-minute walk from the water.
At Fahid Island, you can enjoy paddleboarding at sunset, night swimming beneath the stars, and outdoor yoga sessions. Fahid Beach Club, by Barbossa, and the soon-to-open Coral Drive promenade will feature dining, social, and lifestyle concepts designed to nourish both the body and the soul.
It’s also a family-friendly environment, with plans for schools, luxury residences, hotels, and community amenities that make it a viable year-round home, not just a weekend escape.
