Qalansiya Beach on Socotra Island in Yemen  is a unique place where you can see crystal clear water and white sand surrounded by beautiful mountains.

The picture is amazing. Between two cliffs, a fabulous beach with surprisingly white sand opens up – this is the famous Kalansiya. Amazingly beautiful, like a picture from a movie.
A long stretch of fine white sand and turquoise waters , beside Detwah Lagoon.

Access : Coordinates: / Qalansiyah Beach is located in the far northwest of Socotra Island.

Highlights :

  •  Socotra  is an archipelago in the Indian Ocean off the coast of Somalia, which includes three inhabited islands – Socotra, Abd al-Kuri and Samha, the uninhabited island of Darsa, and rocks in the sea.The main island, Socotra, is 125 km long from east to west and 45 km from north to south. Socotri is an ancient Semitic language spoken only in Socotra and nowhere else on earth.
  • This is probably one of the most beautiful beaches in the whole world without any type of hotel on it.Due to its difficult access, Qalansiyah beach is undeveloped and remote.

Go next : Qulensya , a town on the main island of Socotra, Yemen./ Detwah Lagoon / Shoab Beach.
