It is a beautiful island with clean beaches and swimming. There is a swimming pool that is 5kd extra that we didn’t do. There is a small zoo and horseback rides for the kids (1kd). A short (less than an hour) bus “tour” that takes you to a camel farm and you can ride a camel (1kd) and to see some of the bombed out military equipment left from the invasion. It was also supposed to include an archaelogical site but we ran out of time. There are 2 small tea/coffee places next to reception and a larger banquet room where they serve lunch. Food was very good. There is a nice heritage museum. Additionally there were 2 inflatable slides (not shaded so very hot) and some other play equipment and a game room. There was a mini golf course but we couldn’t figure out where to get clubs and balls so we didn’t play. Then again we didn’t try that hard. So, lots to do and clean in the “village” and beach. However, it is almost deserted. We had the place practically to ourselves (which we enjoyed) but can be a bit disconcerting. It was 15kd for the day which included boat transportation from Marina Crescent and the lunch. I believe it was through Ikarus.
