Kuwait Pearl Diving Season Festival, Ranked: Co-Captain
Kuwait Sea Sport Club
Salmiya, Hawalli, Kuwait
Kuwait Pearl Diving Season Festival is a seasonal cultural celebration that takes place every Summer for an entire week. I took part in since 2008 till this year. Teaching the young generations about the ancestral past by living the experience. Using traditional ships as we sail from Kuwait's center to a south location in its regional water, Khairan. Before the festival begins, a training camp takes place in Kuwait Sea Sport Club to ensure everyone learned what needs to be done and refreshed their memories. Sailors, Co-Captains, and Captains all go through training process. Physical training and equipment use on board and off board the ships. When the festival starts, diving takes place in Khairan to collect oysters and find the pearls alongside sailing and music activities the final day.
