Abu Hadriyah - Location Details

Abu Hadriyah is an area that is currently being destroyed by dumping of rubish but is a wetland area with soem pool and reedbeds. It can be reached by driving out of Dammam on route 85 (Abu Hadriyah Highway) towards Jubail. The area is on the left hand side of the orad and will require a 'U' Turn to reach. Tracks are possible to drive around in the area but the rubish dumping has blocked many off. It is just trial and error to find a way around. The grid reference is 26°29'3.58"N   49°57'26.00"E
