Short description of Al Khiran
Al Khiran is the far southern corner of Kuwait, where canals were cut out of flat coastal desert to make a waterfront city that had no water frontage before. The marina is the largest in the country and a boardwalk runs along it past the restaurants, with an outlet mall and its cinema set above the berths. Lagoon beaches lie behind, calm because the water is dredged rather than open sea. Most of what is built here is second homes and rented chalets, so the place belongs to Kuwaiti weekends far more than to visitors.
