Abu Dhabi is located in the northeastern part of the Persian Gulf, in the Arabian Peninsula. The city is on an island that is less than two hundred fifty square kilometers. The city averages over one hundred degrees Fahrenheit over the summer months. My favorite place in Abu Dhabi was Palm Jumeriah Island. It is one of three man made, government owned island of the coast. The island production started in 2001 and was finished in 2006.
