Al Khobar Corniche

Looking out from the mainland you can see the ornate Water Tower, which overlooks the promenade from its own manmade island.

Half Moon Beach
The southern coast of Khobar along "Half-Moon Bay" has several beaches. Many of these have shaded sitting areas, trash cans and showers. Closer to town most of the beaches are for families only, but approximately 40 km south there is a number of beaches that are open to singles. The beaches have clean sand and they are large enough to get away from the crowds. The water throughout this area is incredibly shallow and warm and there is almost no tide or wave action.

Al Rashid Mall and Mall of Dhahran

For those with families, Al Rashid Mall and Mall of Dhahran have amusement parks so staying entertained there won’t be an issue. As long as you don’t mind bumping elbows with others – Al Rashid Mall and Mall of Dhahran are busiest at weekends – you could easily spend hours lost in the amazing aisles.
