the figure in a cell is how many of that place's spots qualify; flat water is the column you are on
| Place | Flat water | Waves | Beginners | Foiling | Waves and flat | Schools |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fuwairit | 1 | none | 1 | 1 | none | 4 |
| Zekreet | 1 | none | 1 | none | none | 3 |
| Sealine | 1 | none | none | none | none | 1 |
| Al Wakrah | 1 | none | none | none | none | none |
A cell reading none in one of the five facet columns is a rule no spot at that place matches; in the Schools column it is a place with no school on file. A figure links to that facet's page for Qatar where there is one - 1 of the five clear the three-place gate here - except in the column you are already on, and the Schools figures, which are counts rather than facets.
