A great place to visit on a day trip is Al Lulu Island which is a large man made island of the coast of Abu Dhabi. Al Lulu Island has turned into a popular tourist destination and resort area and is home to some of the finest beaches in Abu Dhabi. There are also many watersport facilities at this Abu Dhabi attraction. Al Lulu Island is a 1050-acre man-made island off the coast of Abu Dhabi island. It stretches from the Abu Dhabi Breakwater to the Zayed Sea Port. Land reclamation was completed in 1992. After several plans which were subsequently dropped, the island is now being developed by Sorouh as a mixed commercial and residential project. There are four boats that are capable of transporting 25 people, and a sea bus capable of 60. The boat ride is free of charge, and takes off from the Abu Dhabi Breakwater next to the Heritage Village. Lifejackets are available on board. Once in the island, there is a choice between a train ride to a person's destination or a bus tour.
