Dubai Creek extension map

Dubai: The planned extension of Dubai Creek will create a complete inland waterway from Deira to Jumeirah, turning Bur Dubai into an island.

Dubai Creek, which starts from the Arabian Gulf near Al Shindagha in Bur Dubai, is currently 14 kilometres long and naturally ends at Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary.

It is being extended for another 12 kilometres from Ras Al Khor back to the Gulf, passing through Business Bay, Shaikh Zayed Road, Safa Park, Al Wasl, Jumeirah 2 and the Jumeirah Beach Park.
