Global travel site Big 7 Travel has named Qatar's Purple Island among "The 50 Best Islands In The World".
Purple Island was number 14 amongst the 50 names. This was "based on aggregated scores from previous social media results, and contributions from the Big 7 Travel editorial team."
The site quoted:
Everyones talking about Qatar this year thanks to the Fifa World Cup, but if you’re looking for some respite from the crowds, you might want to consider hopping across to on of the nation’s islands. Unlike many of Qatar’s islands, Purple Island isn’t manmade and instead boasts a fascinating history. Once a temporary campsite for trade with Bahrain and used by fishermen and pearl divers since 2000 BCE, it’s home to some fascinating ruins, as well as a wide variety of birds and marine animals.
The list also includes The Maldives, Bali - Indonesia, Waiheke Island - New Zealand and more.
