The Water Homes are located between the crescent and the crown at the Palm Island Jebel Ali. They are elevated and linked together by boardwalks forming a 12km chain in a shape that spells an Arabic poem across the Arabian Sea written by H.H General Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashed Al Maktoum. It reads: "The wisdom from the wise, not everyone who rides a horse is a jockey."

There are 1060 water 4-bedroom homes featuring private moorings for personal boats.
