 Knight Frank’s Global Waterfront Index provides valuable insights into the performance of waterfront real estate markets worldwide. It helps investors, developers, and buyers understand market trends, identify investment opportunities, and make informed decisions. According to Knight Frank’s 2023 Global Waterfront Index, waterfront properties continue to be highly coveted, generating a substantial premium averaging 118% worldwide. While this represents a marginal decrease from last year’s figure of 121%, the enduring appeal of waterfront living remains evident, driven primarily by supply and demand dynamics.
Frontline water access is a rarity, particularly in cities and protected areas of outstanding natural beauty. This scarcity is evident in popular destinations like Mexico’s Cancun, Playa del Carmen, and Tulum, where tight building restrictions and overwhelming demand are limiting the availability of beachfront land and houses. Investors and second-home buyers are competing for these properties, recognizing their potential for high rental yields and above-average occupancy levels.
The desirability of waterfront land as an inflation hedge and capital preservation tool is becoming increasingly apparent against the current economic backdrop. With rarity comes resilience, as evidenced by the sustained demand for waterfront properties worldwide.
Different types of waterfronts yield varying premiums, with beachfront land offering the most significant uplift. Beachfront land has extended its lead since last year, now enjoying a 76% premium, up from 63% in 2022. This trend underscores the enduring popularity of waterfront living, as evidenced by the prevalence of waterfront-related search terms in online searches.
