Sinbad Island is an iconic landmark located in the Shatt al-Arab River in Basra, Southern Iraq. The island is named after Sinbad the Sailor, the legendary figure from 'One Thousand and One Nights.' It is a small, lush oasis that provides a tranquil escape from the bustling city. Sinbad Island was developed to boost tourism and aims to reflect the rich maritime history of Basra. Renovated and opened to the public, it features pathways, green spaces, and amusement facilities designed for family entertainment. Varieties of plants and palm trees have been planted to enhance its aesthetic appeal and to provide shade. The island's development was part of a broader initiative to revitalize Basra’s waterfront and to pay homage to its historical significance as an important port city. The island is equipped with modern amenities while retaining a sense of the cultural and historical heritage synonymous with the region's folklore and tales of seafaring adventures.
