Southwest Dubai

 
Southwest Dubai is home to Umm Suqeim, Al-Sufouh and Marsa Dubai. This area along the West Coast of Dubai has residential complexes, five-star resorts and many top-rated attractions.

Umm Suqeim was ravaged by the plague at the turn of the 20th C; today it boasts Burj Al-Arab, Wild Wadi and the Jumeirah Beach Hotel.

Al-Sufouh is home to the Royal Mirage, Madinat Jumeirah and Dubai Marina. It also has control of the entrance to Palm Island.

Marsa Dubai is noted for its five-star resorts and the flurry of development that has hit the area.

The southern portion of Dubai is trying to oblige the increasing residential and tourist populations with its architectural ambitions.
