Halul Island (Arabic: جَزِيرَة حَالُول, romanized: Jazīrat Ḫālūl) is one of the most important islands belonging to the State of Qatar. Lying about 90 km (56 mi) northeast of Doha, it serves as a storage area and loading terminal for oil from the surrounding offshore fields.[3] One of the main bases for the Qatari Navy is located in Halul.[4] The Coasts and Borders Security also have a base of operations on the island.[5]
It was frequented by pearling boats in the early 1900s.[6]
