Haql:Umm Anam Beach in Haql Governorate, located in the Tabuk Region, is celebrated as one of the most popular swimming destinations for both locals and tourists.
According to Saudi Press Agency, the beach's name is derived from the anam, or acacia strap flower (Plicosepalus acaciae), a type of red-flowering mistletoe that historically flourished on acacia trees in the valley leading to the beach. This name has helped preserve the plant’s significance in the local culture across generations.
The beach is noted for its clear turquoise waters and fine sand, with a gently sloping seabed that makes it accessible to visitors of all ages. Its crescent-shaped coastline provides breathtaking views, especially during sunrise and sunset.
Umm Anam Beach has gained prominence as a key tourist landmark in Haql, drawing large crowds during holiday periods due to its serene environment and the convenience of nearby services.
