The Canopies at Yas Point

Location: Yas Point, Northern Shore of Yas Island, Abu Dhabi, UAE

Project Description

The Canopies is the first residential community to launch at Yas Point — Aldar’s AED 6 billion waterfront destination on the northern shore of Yas Island. The community comprises 592 apartments across six mid-rise buildings, offering studios and 1, 2 and 3-bedroom layouts, including 2-bedroom + maid and 3-bedroom + maid + study configurations.

Designed as a garden-led community, The Canopies is built around more than 20,000 sq. m. of landscaped open space — shaded pathways, gardens, outdoor wellness areas and social lawns, with Central Park at its heart. Residents gain access to Yas Point’s public beach, 700-metre waterfront promenade, marina and yacht club, retail and dining, and a five-star resort hotel, while SeaWorld Abu Dhabi, Warner Bros. World Abu Dhabi and the upcoming Sphere Abu Dhabi sit minutes away.
