Al Mafjar Beach (Old Ruins Beach) https://goo.gl/maps/46KYxZrXaUbrCA6i6 Distance from Doha 110 km, approx. 1h 20min of driving. Driving conditions You will be comfortably cruising the North Road for most of the way. However, getting to the beach itself requires some off road driving. There’s a dirt road for approx. 4km and then a bit of a sandy stretch to reach closer to the sea. We did not use the 4-wheel-drive, but getting to some parts of the coast might require it. I wouldn’t risk going with a sedan. What we loved… Seclusion! We went over the weekend and there were very little people. Probably the long drive and the off-road part are discouraging most from going there. Also, the coast itself is quite long so people who came were spread over a long distance. Beach condition. The sand is pretty clean (some dried seaweed, but very little garbage left by people) and soft to walk on. Water is shallow enough for the kids to safely splash inside, but at the same time, you don’t need to walk a mile to reach a spot deep enough to swim. Historic village, nearby mangroves, fish and clear deep water Al Mafjar is a tiny hamlet with a beautiful and unspoiled beach that transitions into the nearby mangroves and features a sandbank, that can be reached wading through calm water, which will be around knee-deep during high tide. The remains of the old village are fenced due to conservation reasons, but they can be spotted through the fence and there is a colonial style villa build next to the historic village. It is quite a remarkable sight and gives a good idea about what live could have been like here in the old days. It is a very quiet place and the only other people will be some workers who live in the single house that stands there. visit. Overall experience On a scale of 1 to 5 (5 being the best possible experience), I would rate it 4, maybe even 4.5 So far the best beach that we’ve been to, eager to go back!
