Khor Al Adaid

The Khor Al Adaid area, commonly known as the 'Inland Sea' in the region, is located in the southeast of the State of Qatar. The terrain is outstanding, with a worldwide unique combination of geological and geomorphological elements. These factors combine to form a diversified landscape of extraordinary, unspoiled natural beauty in what is mostly a "wilderness area". Each landscape unit, particularly the Arabian Gulf, large mobile dunes, the tidal embayment system, inland, and coastal sabkha, recently discovered "salt hummocks", stony deserts, elevated mesas, and rocky outcrops, as well as the transition between them, contribute to Qatar's southern territory's distinct character.

Khor Al Adaid's magnificent scenery and various species attract nature lovers. When UNESCO describes a natural reserve as a "remarkable landscape," you know you are in for a treat when you visit this inland beach. View the sunset from the tops of the sand dunes, or observe flocks of migratory birds on the coastlines. Picnics, overnight camping, stargazing, and fishing are all available activities in this conservation area. You can only go to Khor Al Adaid in a 4x4 because a regular automobile will not be able to navigate the dunes.
