Kuwait

Kuwait is a small country on the Arabian Peninsula that is often overshadowed by its larger and more popular neighbours, Saudi Arabia and Iraq. But don't let its size deceive you – Kuwait is packed with natural beauty highlights that are worth exploring.

The coastline along the Persian Gulf is stunning, with crystal-clear water and white sand beaches. One of the most popular spots is Failaka Island, which offers plenty of activities such as swimming, fishing, and windsurfing.

Inland, you'll find rolling sand dunes, lush oases, and awe-inspiring canyons. The best way to explore this rugged landscape is by 4x4 safari. There are also plenty of opportunities for hiking and camping in the country's many nature reserves.

Kuwait is also home to a number of interesting historical sites, such as the ancient fortress of Qal'at Salah ad-Din and the traditional wind towers of Failaka Island. And if you're looking for some city excitement, Kuwait City has plenty to offer, from fascinating museums to lively nightlife.

If you're looking for an off-the-beaten-path travel destination with plenty of natural beauty highlights, be sure to add Kuwait to your list! The coastline along the Persian Gulf is stunning
