History

Dubai Marina and Palm Jumeirah are recent, large-scale land-reclamation projects completed in the 2000s–2010s that reshaped the coastline and enabled waterfront developments and attractions like the XLine.

Conservation

Operators run the attraction on existing urban infrastructure; visitors should avoid littering, respect private shoreline areas and use reusable bottles to reduce plastic waste.
