Aš-Šibahah

Aš-Šibahah lies beside Harrat Lunayyir, a volcanic field east of the Red Sea port of Umm Lajj. Dark basalt flows radiate from its cones down desert valleys; some reached the Red Sea, while others spread toward al-Ays on the field’s southeastern margin. The lava field contains many cones, their black rock standing out against the lighter desert around them.
