Direct Answer

Mina Rashid is located at Port Rashid in Dubai, on the Bur Dubai side around Al Mina Street, a historic waterfront port area. It includes the Dubai Cruise Terminal and marina facilities, and it is also where Emaar’s Rashid Yachts & Marina residential community sits.

Explanation

“Mina Rashid” can feel confusing because people use it to mean two things that overlap. First, it is the port area itself, Port Rashid, a major cruise and maritime hub. DP World describes Mina Rashid as a premier cruise and maritime location, home to the Hamdan bin Mohammed Cruise Terminal, plus yacht berthing and other port activity.

Second, Mina Rashid is also used in real estate marketing to describe the wider waterfront redevelopment zone around the port. That is where you will hear names like “Rashid Yachts & Marina” and specific residential buildings. Emaar’s own community page confirms “Rashid Yachts & Marina” as a Dubai waterfront community, and it frames the location with drive times to major landmarks, which helps you sanity-check the geography when you are comparing areas.

If you want the simplest, most reliable way to place it on a mental map, anchor it to Bur Dubai and Al Mina. Dubai Customs lists its headquarters address as Port Rashid on Al Mina Road, which is a helpful official clue because it ties Port Rashid directly to the Al Mina corridor.

Then zoom out one step. Dubai’s RTA, in a 2025 press release about the Al Shindagha corridor works, explicitly discusses uninterrupted traffic flow towards Port Rashid and references Al Mina Street and Sheikh Rashid Road on the Bur Dubai side. In other words, Mina Rashid is not “new Dubai”, it is on the older Dubai coastline, connected by the same road network serving Bur Dubai and the Deira crossings.

For tourists, the naming is even easier: the UAE Ministry of Economy and Tourism lists the Dubai Cruise Terminal as located at Port Rashid in Dubai. If you can find Port Rashid, you have found Mina Rashid.
