What Fahid Island is like

A 2.7 million sq m island between Yas and Saadiyat that Aldar is developing as a wellness-themed beach community. Entirely off plan: first apartments are due in 2029.

Fahid Island lies between Yas Island and Saadiyat Island on Abu Dhabi's north-eastern coast. Aldar unveiled its masterplan in June 2025 with a stated gross development value of more than AED 40 billion. The island covers 2.7 million sq m and has an 11 km coastline: 4.6 km of beach on one side and mangroves on the other. Aldar's plan keeps every home within a five-minute walk of the water and gives 30% of the land to natural and open space.

The selling theme is wellness. The masterplan includes a 10 km landscaped Berm Park with running tracks and three cycling routes that join Abu Dhabi's wider cycle loop, a 2 km waterfront promenade, a retail street called Coral Drive, a beach club, five-star hotels, and a campus of King's College School Wimbledon. Aldar describes the island as the first to be certified under the Fitwel healthy-building standard.

Three residential schemes had launched by November 2026, all apartment-led: Fahid Beach Residences (due Q2 2029), The Beach House Fahid (880 homes, due Q4 2029) and Fahid Beach Terraces (six buildings, due Q4 2029). Aldar reported more than AED 3.5 billion of sales in the first week, with 67% going to expatriate residents and overseas buyers. On Aldar's website in November 2026, remaining stock started at AED 1.9 million at The Beach House, about AED 2.46 million at Fahid Beach Terraces and AED 4 million at Fahid Beach Residences.

Fahid appears as 'Fahed Island' on the list of investment zones published in 2019, and Aldar sells homes there freehold to foreign nationals. Aldar says Yas Island, the Saadiyat Cultural District and Zayed International Airport are each within 15 minutes by car. Nobody lives on the island yet, so every claim about lifestyle is a plan, not a record.

Suits

  • Buyers who want beach access between Yas and Saadiyat at lower prices than Saadiyat
  • Families attracted by King's College School Wimbledon
  • Investors willing to wait until 2029 or later for completion
  • Second-home buyers focused on outdoor and fitness amenities

In its favour

  • Listed as a designated investment zone; sold freehold to foreign nationals
  • 11 km coastline with 4.6 km of beach, per Aldar's masterplan
  • Between Yas Island and Saadiyat Island, each within 15 minutes by car (Aldar)
  • King's College School Wimbledon campus planned on the island
  • 10 km Berm Park with running and cycling routes
  • More than AED 3.5 billion of sales in launch week, June 2025 (Aldar)

Worth knowing

  • Nothing is complete. The first homes are due in 2029 and the island's school, hotels and retail will follow their own timetables
  • A single developer controls the island, its pricing, its service charges and the pace of future releases
  • Island access depends on new road connections that are not yet in use by residents. Ask how many access points will be open at handover
  • Launch-week sell-through was high, which may mean many investor-owned units listed for resale or rent at the same time in 2029
  • With a masterplan valued at more than AED 40 billion, further phases will keep adding supply for years
  • Wellness certification describes design standards, not running costs. Service charges have not been published
