Hotels in Hawar Island

The Hawar Islands are a group of islands  situated off the west coast of Qatar in the Gulf of Bahrain of the Persian Gulf.  Despite their proximity to Qatar (Suw?d al Jan?b?yah is only 1.4 km from the Qatari mainland at the peninsula of Ras Abruq, while Rubud Al Gharbiyah, the island closest to the main island of Bahrain, lies at a distance of 19.7 km to it), the islands belong to Bahrain but were the subject of a dispute between Bahrain and Qatar. A Hawari separatist movement exists in Europe but there is little evidence of support for their movement in the Hawar Islands. The area is 50.6 km². At the census of 2001, the population numbered 3,875.
