Arabian canal lakes (near Expo lake)

[Ilya]

Just spotted on google maps lakes which looks very "natural" not far away from the Expo lake. The area is close to the Arabian Canal, which is on hold. Have anyone visited this place? Dunes, lakes - looks promising from the satellite, but what is the reality?

These are man made sewage lakes from the nearby sewage plant. The area however is beautiful but the lakes are hidden inbetween the dunes which makes this area very treacherous. 
 

Avoid this area !

Thanks! Looks like a perfect place to send a drone there

The last Jeep I saw there was being pulled out by a crane as it ended up in the lake. Broke his front axle during the recovery as well.
