Amaala

Amaala is a land and property megaproject currently in development in Saudi Arabia that is managed by Red Sea Global[1] and forms part of the Saudi Vision 2030 program.[2] Its name is derived from the Arabic word for "hope", and focuses on luxury tourism to attract visitors to the Red Sea coast. The project consists of three main developments: The Coastal Development, Amaala Island, and Triple Bay.[3]
