Tour Overview
Located in Al Khor, Purple Island (also known locally as Al Thakira) is one of Qatar’s most unique natural sites. The shallow channels here are lined with mangrove trees, creating a habitat for fish, crabs, herons, and other wildlife. You’ll kayak at a relaxed pace, soaking in the views, stopping when you want, and gliding through calm waters that reflect the sky.
The experience is guided by trained kayaking professionals who ensure that even beginners feel confident and supported. Whether it’s your first time holding a paddle or your fiftieth, this tour makes space for both learning and enjoying.
