The PalmIslands, also referred to as The PalmDubai and The Palms, are the three largest man-made islands in the world, which are being built on the coast of the emirate of Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
Each of the islands (Palm Jumeirah, Palm Jebel Ali, and Palm Deira) are being built in the shape of a date palm tree and consist of a trunk, a crown with fronds, and are surrounded by a crescent island that acts as a breakwater.
The island, visible from the moon, is being built on 80 million cubic meters of land dredged from the approach channel to the emirate’s Jebel Ali port, an operation that will deepen the channel to 17 meters (56 feet).
