One of the best things about the country of Qatar is its wealth of beautiful beaches. Whether it is in Doha at one of the hotel beaches or in total seclusion at an undeveloped area, the sand is soft , the sun hot, and the water warm. And so I spent my first weekend day at the Sealine Beach resort about 45 min south of Doha. After swimming and sunning and then swimming again all I could think was, "they are paying me extra for this?!?" The only thing missing was a nice cold drink (curse you Ramadan!)
