Overview
There's so much to explore beyond Doha in Qatar. Your journey will take you to the northern regions, where you'll discover the country's rich history. Begin with a visit to Al Khor Harbor, once a thriving hub for the local pearl diving and fishing industries. It remains a bustling port where fishermen are still hard at work. Next, you'll stop at Al Thakira, a stunning area of lush greenery, filled with mangroves and picturesque waterways—a true oasis in the desert. Finally, you'll visit the Zubarah Fort, a historic military stronghold that houses various artifacts and holds great cultural significance in Qatar.

Al Khor is a port city located in northern Qatar, approximately 50 kilometers from Doha. As one of the country's largest urban areas, Al Khor hosts many workers from the oil industry, given its proximity to Qatar's northern oil and natural gas reserves, as well as the Ras Laffan Industrial City. Additionally, it is one of the potential venues for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.

Purple Island, also called Al Khor Island, is a picturesque location in Al Khor, approximately an hour’s drive from Doha. This small island is linked to the mainland by a narrow causeway, which is interrupted at several points to let water flow into the mangrove forest.

Al Zubara, also referred to as Fort Zubara, is a historic Qatari military stronghold constructed under the supervision of Sheikh Abdullah bin Jassim Al Thani in 1938.
Al Jumail

Al Jumail, a deserted pearling and fishing settlement located in the northeastern part of Qatar, was established in the 19th century and remained inhabited until the early 20th century, before the petroleum and gas industries triggered an economic transformation. The village's name derives from the Arabic word "jameel," meaning "beautiful," which refers to the trees that thrive in the region year-round. As noted on Wikipedia, in the 1820s, George Barnes Brucks was assigned to conduct the first British survey of the Persian Gulf. He documented Al Jumail in his survey, referring to it as "Yamale."
