About Saadiyat Island
Saadiyat Island lies about 500 metres off the Abu Dhabi coast and pairs museums, protected beaches and calm lagoon villas. It divides into five areas: the Cultural District, where apartment projects sit beside the museums; Saadiyat Beach, home to Mamsha Al Saadiyat, beach villas and branded residences; the villa neighbourhoods of Saadiyat Lagoons and Saadiyat Reserve; and Marsa Al Saadiyat, the newest waterfront district. Louvre Abu Dhabi, Zayed National Museum, the Natural History Museum and the Abrahamic Family House are open, with Guggenheim Abu Dhabi to come. More than 9 km of white sand, where hawksbill turtles nest, includes Saadiyat Public Beach, Soul Beach and Kai Beach. Cranleigh Abu Dhabi and NYU Abu Dhabi are on the island, and roads connect it to the Corniche, Al Maryah Island and Zayed International Airport.
