Quoin Island

The largest of the As Salamah Archipelago's three islands, Quoin Island (also known as As Salamah Island and Great Quoin Island) is the largest. It is Oman's northernmost landmass and the customary waypoint for ships navigating the Persian Gulf's entrance and exit. When a ship is declared to be in the "Passed Quoin Inbound" position, its insurance costs will rise.

The triangular-shaped island is roughly 770 meters long and up to 530 meters wide, with a total area of about 22 hectares (54 acres). Even though they share the same name, people should not confuse it with the one in Australia. Quoin is one of the most beautiful islands in Oman, just waiting to be discovered.
