A hub of new development, Marina Island (bridged to Abu Dhabi Island) draws people in to the Marina Mall, fishing, local restaurants, and Marina Eye—a ferris wheel that opened in time for the winter holidays in 2015. Right across the street from Marina Mall, shoppers can enjoy a ride overlooking the city lights at night before popping back indoors for dinner and a movie. Seating up to eight people, the cabins on the wheel are all air conditioned which is an important element of design during the summer in the UAE.
