Hudayriyat Island by Modon, Abu Dhabi — The Complete Guide
Hudayriyat Island is Abu Dhabi's sports, wellness and waterfront-living island, master-developed by government-backed Modon Properties. Minutes from the city, it combines residential districts — Bashayer, Nawayef, Al Naseem and Hudayriyat Golf Estates — with landmark leisure: Surf Abu Dhabi's record wave, a UCI-grade velodrome, a championship golf course and 16 km of beach.
