Lake Zakher (Arabic: بُحَيْرَة زَاخِر, romanized: Buḥayrat Zākhir) is a man-made lake in Al Ain, Abu Dhabi, the UAE. An unintended byproduct of the UAE’s desalination-linked water management practices, the lake was created from treated waste water that was released onto land. It raised groundwater levels and eventually resulted in the development of a lake.
