The island is renowned for its rich biodiversity, serving as a habitat for seagulls, flamingos, avicennia plants, and various desert flora. Its name, "Siniya," translates to "flashing lights," possibly referencing the intense sunlight characteristic of the region.

Historically, Siniya Island holds significant archaeological importance. Recent excavations have unveiled the oldest known pearl fishing town in the Persian Gulf, indicating the island's pivotal role in the region's pearling industry. Additionally, the discovery of an Eastern Christian monastery and a bishop's palace on the island provides insights into early Christian communities that once inhabited the area.

In recent developments, Sobha Realty has announced plans for a luxury residential project on Siniya Island, aiming to blend modern living with the island's natural beauty. This initiative underscores the island's evolving role as both a historical site and a contemporary residential destination.

Today, Siniya Island is celebrated for its ecological and historical significance, offering a unique blend of natural beauty and cultural heritage.
