an artificial canal in Greece that connects the Gulf of Corinth in the Ionian Sea with the Saronic Gulf in the Aegean Sea
It is 6.4 kilometres (4 miles) in length and only 24.6 metres (80.7 feet) wide at sea level, making it impassable for many modern ships

Construction of a canal finally began under Roman Emperor Nero in 67 AD

I have spent the most of this day trying to figure out what these elongated shapes are. The location is close to Al Khidayrah and Al Jirab

Mangrove nursery, coral plantations, salt harvesting or algae farms
