5 sentences on hawar islanda
Answers
Answer:
Located 20kms south of Bahrain, the Hawar Islands are a renowned wildlife reserve of international significance. The islands are home to pristine beaches, indigenous fauna and flora, and migratory birds. A trip to Bahrain would not be complete without a visit to Hawar
Explanation:
The islands used to be one of the settlements of the Bahraini branch of the Dawasir who settled there in the early 19th century.
The islands were first surveyed in 1820, when they were called the Warden’s Islands, and two villages were recorded.
They are now uninhabited, other than a police garrison and a hotel on the main island; access to all but Hawar island itself is severely restricted.
Local fishermen are allowed to fish in adjacent waters and there is some recreational fishing and tourism on and around the islands.
Fresh water has always been scarce; historically it was obtained by surface collection and even today, with the desalinisation plant, additional supplies have to be brought in.
