Coral reefs, natural pools surround key strategic Haql

Tabuk, Saudi Arabia, January 29, SPA -- Haql enjoys a very strategic
location.

The governorate, located close to the Kingdom's northern
borderline and administratively in the Tabuk Region, overlooks the
Aqaba Bay, a strategic strip of land connecting Saudi Arabia with
Jordan to the North and Egypt to the West.


The governorate, which has an overall area of 5,643 square
kilometers, has a land port, Dhorrah, as well as five administrative
centers.


Haql's distinguished location makes easy for visitors to have a
glimpse of the neighboring states and despite being a coastal city,
it has a very low humidity level with fairly moderate temperatures in
the summer.


Due its mountainous nature, particularly in the east and south east
areas, Haql is subject to snowfall in winter.


Haql is also famous for its natural pools and coral reefs which make
it a desired tourist destination as well as a spectacular winter
resort.


Health wise, the governorate enjoys advanced health services. Haql
also enjoys a good commerce life with the locals engaging in the
fish, tourist and water sports businesses.
