Arwad, the classical Aradus, is a town in Syria on an eponymous island in the Mediterranean Sea. It is the administrative center of the Arwad Subdistrict, of which it is the only locality. It is the only inhabited island in Syria. It is located 3 km from Tartus, Syria's second-largest port. Today, Arwad is mainly a fishing town. According to the Syria Central Bureau of Statistics, during the 2004 census, it had a population of 4,403, predominantly Syrian Sunni Muslims. Plans were unveiled in May 2016 to renovate the island to become a tourist attraction.
