Alfutaisi Island. Abu-Dhabi. The small island that you can see from space...

 
 

Futaisi Island was recently in the news for the discovery of 22 ancient water catchments by archeologists. The islands history is likely to date back hundreds of years judging by the existence of old water wells, an ancient mosque and a grave yard.
For more information about the Island check here
 According to reviews i found online it's a nice place to visit for a day not longer because there is nothing much to do there YET.
So if you are planing to go there or to Abu-Dhabi and you see the bellow image from the plane...yes from the plane. Hamad Bin Hamdan Al Nahyan, 63, has ordered to dig his name in sand on an  island he owns with letters so big they can be seen from space.
