Dubai Islands
The Dubai Islands, formerly known as the Deira Islands (Arabic: جزر ديرة) are four undeveloped artificial islands off the coast of Deira, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The project was initially called Palm Deira and was planned to be part of the Palm Islands. As of 2021, little development has taken place on the islands due to the financial crisis of 2007–2008.
