Katara Traditional Dhow Festival

2027-02-112027-02-14

Held along Katara's beach, this festival lines up traditional dhow races against a working display of the crafts that used to define the coastline — pearl diving demonstrations, rope and net work, and boatbuilders showing the joinery techniques by hand. Quieter and more hands-on than the bigger citywide events.

Let the trip assistant build an itinerary timed to this event.
