Al Hallaniyyat Islands
Al Hallaniyyat Islands Proposed Nature Reserve comprises 5, mostly barren islands. They are known for their birdlife, coral reefs (with associated species of fish) and marine turtles. The reserve has been designated an Important Bird Area because it supports seabird breeding colonies of red-billed tropicbirds, tropical shearwaters, masked boobies, Socotra cormorants, sooty gulls, and bridled and greater crested terns.
