Resort island in Qatar?

The rock
By The rock

Hi,

Isn't it a pity none of the islands around qatar have been developed to offer resort/holiday/leisure facilities and activities. Or is it available but just not advertised enough; is anyone aware of options?

Not even something like haloul island in bahrain.

Actually there is before... but it was shut-down by the authorities. Not just because it's making pollution but also there are few locals drowned...
