Artificial islands off Abu Dhabi’s coast seen from the Corniche; boaters and shoreline walkers note the reclaimed land and occasional recreational activity around the islands.
Al Lulu Island is a reclaimed island located offshore from the Abu Dhabi Corniche in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. The island was created by dredging and has been the subject of proposed leisure and public-amenity developments.
