AL khor beach here I come!

I heard many great things about the al khor beach and it said to be one of the finest beach in Qatar. I and my friends planned to go there tomorrow. Ive been in Katara beach, not very fun though cause we are the only one who swam there.

So we decided to go in AL khor beach because its a public beach, meaning the more people the more things to do like rather than just swimming.

Im very excited for tomorrow!

so disappointing really,,first we thought it was a POW camp cause of the fences and security guard.. we didn't swim cause the water looks horrible. Only one toilet, no tables, and so dull!! Once again MARHABA deceive me

RatanDS where is that one hours drive you talking about?

Good grief! Has everyone gone troppo with the heat tonight? There are some really weird comments popping up here on QL...

Why be so "over the top" and effusive... can't everyone just calm down and stop all this rot?

Sheesh... the Al Khor beach is nothing... there are NO real beaches here in this country... if you want to know what a real beach is then try googling "Gold Coast beaches in Australia" - golden clean sands and beautiful clear water - now that is what you call a beach!!

But hey if you wanna go up there to Al Khor with your friends for a day out and fool around and kid yourself you are on a real beach... go ahead - good on yer! Nothing bad in fantasyland... haha!

None of the beaches around vicinity of Doha are proper beaches. To see a proper beach you have to drive atleast for an hour.

thats not what Ive heard, since I arrived here I heard many people talking about how great the country is and how rich qatar is etc.. sorry bro you cant spoil the party!!

besides Qatar is the richest country its not hard for them to make a decent beach, yep. "decent" cause I know Qatar is not a tourist destination but "building" a decent beach is not a problem

I mean dubai is not the richest country in the world not even in the top 5 position but look what they accomplish.

SAM23450 i think your just jealous cause your not invited lol!! sorry dude i believe in Qatar
