Zuqar Island
Yemeni island in the Red Sea
Zuqar Island is a Yemeni island located in the Red Sea. It lies between the coasts of mainland Yemen and Eritrea, near the Strait of Bab al-Mandab which connects the Red Sea to the Gulf of Aden. Despite its proximity to the African continent, the island is considered a part of Asia because it sits on the Asian continental shelf. It is approximately 130 square kilometres (50 sq mi).
