Abu shurayah island: Located approximately 10 kilometers east of Farasan Island, Abu Shurayah Island stands as one of the Red Sea's most pristine and tranquil coastal destinations. The island's landscape is defined by white sandy shores stretching between shallow rock formations and calm, crystal-clear waters, making it an ideal destination for boat trips, coastal exploration, and nature photography.
According to Saudi Press Agency, the island is distinguished by its open coastline, diverse sand formations, and peaceful sea inlets that give the area a unique natural charm. Small coastal creatures move across the damp sands, while flocks of seagulls glide with the rhythm of the tides, creating a serene atmosphere that brings visitors closer to nature.
Such natural destinations reflect the growing tourism appeal of the Red Sea, as the Saudi Red Sea Authority works to promote sustainable coastal tourism while preserving ecosystems and biodiversity, in line with the goals of Saudi Vision 2030.
