Superyacht-Surrounded Luxe Marinas

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

NEOM Designs the Jaumur Marina in Saudi Arabia

— September 13, 2024 — Luxury
NEOM is refining luxury with the Jaumur project, which focuses on the marina in Saudi Arabia. It is meant for superyachts and provides a space for a luxury community. The marina is great for billionaires to park their yachts comfortably under the aerofoil shelter, which is resembled by an arrow shape pointing at the desert above. It will be able to hold 300 superyachts.

NEOM notes in a press release, “The aerofoil incorporates a gravity-defying cantilever to form a stunning entrance to the marina, welcoming the world’s largest superyachts. The sculptural structure is a landmark that serves as the perfect base for all the marina attractions, for committed yachting enthusiasts and adventurers seeking personalized experiences. The marina promenade will be a place alive with entertainment, leisure, and cultural experiences, hosting year-round arts events and performance programs, complemented by signature retail stores and world-class dining options.”
