The lease agreement for the seafront property that covers 1.5 million square metres of space, will provide a major retail/entertainment location for the city. 

It will consist of a theme park with wildlife area, water park, edutainment centre, equestrian centre, three hotels and apartment and housing units.

There will also be a major shopping district and F&B facilities with an FEC, tenpin bowling centre, skating rink and cinema. The MAF VOX cinema and Magic Planet brands will probably be involved.
