The correct answer is B) Dubai.

The city that has caused the most damage to its coastline due to rapid urban development and tourism construction, is Dubai.

Dubai is a modern coastal city that impresses tourist and businessmen with its skyline and modern buildings. But the other side of the story is the many environmental problems that modernization has caused to the coastline of Dubail. Damages to ecology and sea life due to water pollution and bad sewage system are problems that are affecting people in Dubai. The treat of wastewater and the salinity of seawater to convert it to fresh water, are also issues that concern government officials.
