Abu Dhabi Maritime was established in May 2020, via an agreement between AD Ports Group and the Department of Municipalities and Transport (DMT), to manage the growth and development of Abu Dhabi’s maritime domain and help achieve the Government’s vision of positioning Abu Dhabi as a leading global maritime capital.
Operating under AD Ports Group, with guidance from DMT, Abu Dhabi Maritime pursues its mission by implementing a streamlined, user and business-friendly regulatory environment, that remains responsive to the needs of the Emirate’s recreational and commercial maritime communities. Furthermore, the organisation is focused on developing ultra-modern infrastructure and introducing advanced digital services to enhance the user experience and help fully unlock Abu Dhabi’s social, cultural and economic potential.
By collaborating closely with its partners, stakeholders and the Emirate’s entire maritime community, Abu Dhabi Maritime is dedicated to continual improvement and adherence to the highest health, safety, environmental, and quality standards, so that our pristine marine ecosystems are protected and preserved for generations to come.
