The Inland Sea, Khor Al Udeid, Qatar - Qatar


Loading...
The Inland Sea, Khor Al Udeid, Qatar is a shore accessible salt water dive site, located in Khor Al Udeid, Qatar. This dive site has an average rating of 3.00 out of 5 from 1 scuba divers. The maximum depth is 51-60ft/16-18m. The average visibility is 16-20ft/5-6m.

The Inland Sea is a great place for diving. It is located at Khor Al Udeid; about 20 minutes drive through the dunes from the Sealine Resort and in sight of the Saudi Arabian coastline. A sheltered area with some small reefs, it is a prime spot for an all-day outing and supports an abundance of fish.

This is the place to get away from it all. It is an area of outstanding beauty at the SE tip of Qatar, but only accessible by four-wheel drive vehicles. NEVER TRAVEL ALONE. It is easy to get stuck in the loose sand and there are vast areas that would make it very hard to locate one lone car out in the desert. You should always inform friends and neighbors when you are going to the Inland Sea and when you expect to return. You may wish to go with a tour company (see Tour Companies) There are three ways to get there:
  • By road to Mazrat Turaina and then on a very rough track southeast
  • Along the beach from Messaied, but check the tide times as cars have been known to get stuck and submerged by the incoming tide;
  • Across the dunes from Messaied. This route should only be attempted by drivers experienced in soft and desert conditions but it is by far the most enjoyable.
