Is this project real?

The Aquariums at the Pearl Island is a complex of several world-class facilities including World Ocean Aquarium, Tropical Coral Reef Aquarium, and Shark Wild Reef – all located in the Aqua Park of the spectacular Pearl Island - the 210-acre shell-shaped entertainment and resort complex in Arabian Gulf . More than just traditional displays of ocean fauna, Aquariums at Pearl Island offer a contemporary spin on marine life exhibition centers. Through immersive exhibits and attractions, guests get closer to the creatures of the deep than they have ever been before.

i think this was just a proposal; we do have an aquarium under construction in Lulu-Island (Pearl Island) so this could have been a proposal for that project.

This is an old project called Al Mahar that was scraped, I hope it will be replaced by this one cos it's in the same area.
