Site description (2014 baseline):

Threats: There is a proposed windfarm at Al-Mukha which could seriously impact soaring bird migration. There are two pilot projects to construct a tourist village and a resort at both sites; currently an investor is being sought. The coastal beaches are also impacted by floating rubbish, especially plastic.
