The MarQ Communities, with its modern vision and strong financial and technical capabilities, will play a pivotal role as the developer of the project while Maxim Investment Group retains 100% ownership of the land.

The project includes a natural bay with sandy beaches spanning 1000 meters, and crystal lagoons with an area of more than 200,000 square meters, a length of more than 14 kilometers, and a depth of 1.6 meters. The built-up area of the two phases, Bo Islands and Bo Sands, occupies only 12% of the entire project area, with the remaining space featuring artificial lakes, parks, and landscaped areas.
