The Ministry of Communications received a delegation from the Kingdom of Bahrain, who made an experimental visit to the port of Ruwais, as part of the maritime linking project between the two countries. This visit comes within a series of coordination steps in preparation for the operation of the marine line between Qatar and Bahrain, and the visit addressed the course of the trip and facilities allocated to travelers.
In addition to its role in facilitating the movement of individuals, the marine line is expected to stimulate the tourism and commercial movement, whether at the level of individuals or companies. The expectations indicate that the marine link will contribute to increasing trade exchange and opening new horizons for investors and transportation companies and tourism.
This marine connection is a comfortable option for travelers compared to the wild crossing, as it provides a great time and effort. While land travel takes approximately 4 and a half hours, the cruise decreases for only 60 minutes, making it an ideal choice for families, tourists and businessmen.
The Ruwais Port plays a major role in stimulating regional trade exchange and reviving the economic movement in the northern region of the state. In addition to general goods, the Ruwais port is currently dealing with the increasing demand for food and other commodities.
