Abu Dhabi’s billion-dirham waterfront social dining and entertainment destination, Al Qana, is developing a new Riviera-style marina, that will rejuvenate this area of the capital and, on its launch, will become ‘the place to be’ for those wanting to dine, socialise or sail off into the sunset.

The super chic and exquisite venue, Al Qana Marina will feature seafood restaurants, cafes and marine services.

One of the most anticipated touristic landmarks in the capital, Al Qana is the first-ever build-operate-transfer (BOT) model implemented by the Abu Dhabi Municipality and is jointly developed by Al Barakah International Investment.

International Construction Contracting Company (ICCC) is the lead contractor in charge of the development of the project.

Featuring seven anchor destinations spanning over 2.4 km of scenic and picturesque waterfront walkways, Al Qana offers residents and visitors a collection of attractions with leisure facilities from waterside eateries, the largest standalone cinema in Abu Dhabi, the Middle East’s largest aquarium, the first-of-its-kind lifestyle hub including wellness facilities, first-to-the-UAE VR zone, E-Sports arena, standalone exciting kids’ zone, and innovative landscaped community spaces.

The amenities of Al Qana’s Marina include 24-hour security, vessel monitoring, emergency response equipment, highly equipped professionals, as well as an extensive range of marine services and facilities.
