The waters of this part of the Gulf are clean and full of fish. As in many areas, there is the threat of over fishing, and I think the Qatari government are trying to exercise some  control over how much is being caught.

Looking over the walkway into work as I leave in the afternoon, I can see loads of large fish, including some stripy ones and a pipefish.

Not sure what this is… about 9 inches long and there were nine or ten of them swimming around the seawall this afternoon.
