"Go Kayaking This white mangrove forest is accessible by kayak from the Al-Thakira Marina in the northern town of Al-Khor. This network of channels is home to an unexpected variety of birds, including flamingos and a new species of sea slug. It’s an easy paddle accessible to the inexperienced and with the reward of a stop at a mangrove secluded beach. Entalek EcoAdventures ( http://www.entalek.org/ ) and Paddle Qatar ( http://www.aquasportsqatar.com/ ) are two eco-adventure tour companies offering organized mangrove kayaking expeditions."

Loved the drive to the place. It can get crowded, even though its a remote place. I would recommend driving around the beach if you have an SUV

A great beach for family and friends, A ideal area to have BBQ with family and stay overnight as many people are staying overnight with their loved ones for the whole day. You can get very nice fresh air and enjoy a natural beach environment. This is the best beach in Qatar as far as I have experienced. You need to go early as the sea water might block the road to reach this area. You can use your ordinary cars if you do not have 04 Wheel. An amazing beach you must experienced if you are in Qatar.

It's a nice place for camping, but it's a bit more crowded in the weekends, on the weekdays it's a lovely place to camp n BBQ, fishing. You have to drive carefully on the way along the grave road while it's high tide, there is more chances of skiding. And don't try dunes driving if you are not with company.

AL-Thakira Beach is indeed the most beautiful, peaceful and clean beach in Qatar. I wonder why only few people know about it. Al Dhakhira sea strip looks like a natural lake with mangrove forests on both sides and a populated town on the 3rd side. It features a lot of greenery and a natural habitat for thousands of birds.
