Also known as Al Khawr, which translates to "sea on three sides" in Arabic, this city is older than Doha but much smaller in size. Located just 50 kilometers north of Doha, Al Khor was once the heart of Qatar's pearling industry, though it lost its prominence after the advent of cultured pearls. Today, it is home to a picturesque harbor where traditional fishing dhows can be seen, a corniche that leads to mangrove forests, and a museum that highlights the region's fishing, pearling, and dhow-building heritage.

The mangrove ecosystem is not only a key tourism attraction for Qatar but also a vital environmental resource. It offers a natural habitat and refuge for birds, fish, and various wildlife, while also helping to protect against coastal erosion.

Situated in the northeastern part of Qatar, Bin Ghannam Island, also known as Purple Island, is a must-see destination. Located about an hour's drive from Doha, close to Al Khor city, the island is renowned for its stunning natural landscapes, unique wildlife, and vibrant plant life, making it a perfect spot for a family day trip.

Located in the northwestern region of Qatar, Al Zubarah Fort was constructed next to the remnants of an ancient stronghold. Once a prosperous port and hub for trade, fishing, and pearling, Al-Zubarah now stands as a UNESCO World Heritage site. This safeguarded area has evolved into one of Qatar's most significant archaeological locations. An international team of archaeologists and heritage experts, spearheaded by the Qatar Museums Authority, has unearthed numerous artifacts, many of which are showcased in the fort's renovated structure.

The ultimate tour experience that transports you to the northern region of Qatar, a significant area in the country’s vibrant culture and history. Our guide will lead you on a journey through time, beginning at Al Khor's harbor, once the heart of pearl diving and fishing in the past. As you travel through Al Thakira, you will explore the mangrove forests.
