The development of the Danaat Hawar Resort is set to begin shortly, according to the chairman of the Southern Area Development Company Isa Sultan Al Dhawadi.

Work on the project is expected to start on site next month following the signing of a contract with Dredging International NV for the first phase of dredging and reclamation works.

The contract involves excavating major access channels and a marina basin to serve the resort, construction of four multi-plot islands with 250 residential and commercial plots and extend the existing shoreline.

Al Dhawadi noted that the resort represents an unprecedented vision and represents a new beginning for development in Hawar in accordance with the directives of Bahrain's HM The King. He invited investors to participate in developing the resort.
