If you’re searching for a place in Qatar where you can disconnect from the city, breathe fresh coastal air, and enjoy a real nature experience—welcome to AquaSports Eco Camp at Purple Island (Al Thakira).
Our camp is designed as a calm base by the mangroves: a traditional Bedouin-style seating area, soft rugs, comfortable cushions, and a warm atmosphere that feels authentic and simple. It’s the perfect place to gather before activities, relax after kayaking, or enjoy a peaceful sunset with your group.
Whether you’re coming with family, planning a school outdoor learning day, or organizing a corporate team-building trip, AquaSports Eco Camp is where your mangrove adventure starts.
Eco-friendly by design: solar-powered and built from nature
At AquaSports Eco Camp, sustainability isn’t a slogan — it’s how we operate. The camp is eco-friendly, solar-powered, and built using natural, low-impact materials that blend into the environment rather than disturb it.
You’ll notice the camp setup is intentionally earthy and minimal:
- natural shading and traditional-style construction
- simple, comfortable seating that matches the landscape
- solar lighting that supports low-impact operation (especially at sunset)
- a nature-first setup designed to respect the mangrove habitat
This approach supports responsible eco-tourism in Qatar, keeping the experience clean, calm, and aligned with the beauty of Purple Island.
Why Purple Island is the perfect location
Purple Island (Al Thakira) is one of Qatar’s most unique coastal environments. It’s known for:
- beautiful mangrove channels
- shallow calm waters (great for beginners)
- birdlife and seasonal wildlife sightings
- quiet scenery that feels far from the city
From our camp, you’re already in the heart of the experience—no long transfers inside the site, no complicated setup. Just arrive, settle in, and enjoy.
What you can do at AquaSports Eco Camp
1) Guided mangrove kayaking adventures
Our guided kayaking tours are designed for beginners and nature lovers. After a clear safety briefing and equipment fitting, you’ll glide through calm waters and explore the mangrove ecosystem with our professional guides.
Kayaking is not just fun — it’s one of the best ways to experience Purple Island quietly and respectfully.
2) Environmental awareness activities (land-based option)
For schools, youth groups, and CSR teams who want a strong eco program without kayaking, we offer a structured Environmental Awareness Action Plan, typically 60 minutes, including:
- Mangrove ecology & environmental learning
- beach cleanup and plastic impact awareness
- reducing pollution with simple eco-actions
- Purple Island heritage storytelling and local context
This is a powerful option for groups that want education, impact, and meaning—while staying on land.
3) Corporate team building in nature
If you want a corporate day that feels different (and actually brings teams together), our Eco Camp setting is ideal. It combines nature, guided activities, and a relaxed camp atmosphere to end the day.
Many companies choose our programs for:
- team bonding outside the office
- CSR and sustainability-focused outings
- wellness days and staff appreciation trips
- leadership and communication activities in a real outdoor setting
