Wakra Beach Part 2

The following weekend, we decided to go back to the beach.  This time we went at 8:00 in the morning.  This time we were bringing some donuts.  We were also expecting some friends to be meeting us there too.  We were smarter this time around as we have already figured out the easiest way to go there.

When we came it was high tide and much of the water closest to the beach was a little murky.  We were a little disappointed too, to find out that during this time of the day, the murky water which obviously was very hard to see through have got some trash in it mostly plastic wraps from food.  My husband and I were quite sad to find out that some people who have been visiting the beach were not responsible enough to take care of their trash and just dumped it on the beach.  It’s a shame that we are given this opportunity to enjoy nature for free and yet we simply seem not to care.

Disappointed that we didn’t get to enjoy our visit as much as we did the first time, I am more disgusted at how people can be so irresponsible and uncaring of their environment.  Here is hoping that the Municipality of Al Wakra would see this problem and start addressing it.  But most of all here’s hoping that people who visit the beach would come to their senses and start caring for it.
