Qatar’s main seaport has opened an exciting new visitors centre that promises to be fun and educational for all. It has a museum where visitors can learn about the maritime industry and dive into the history of Qatar's sea-faring days, the pearl diving era and dhow boats. Visitors will also be treated to a free 4D cinema show that brings the vision of the country’s port to life in an interactive style. A big highlight of the centre is the large aquarium, which features 17 basins of different sizes and more than 3000 sea creatures. Shop for souvenirs at the gift shop, grab a bite to eat at the café, or let the young ones play in the outdoor kids' play area with slides, swings and walking tracks.
