The Corniche was built on reclaimed land & goes for miles. It is the only real "green" area around the whole of Al Khobar. It is a great place to go for a walk & is very popular for family picnics on the weekend.

Good thing too because it was hot. It took maybe 15 minutes to get to the Corniche area. It's a lot like other beach drives/walks... the water... More

Great place to hang out at in winters mainly, mostly because of the hot cimate in Saudi Arabia! Overall, love to visit it to have a great scenic view of the sea.

Downtown Khobar. A good place for walking or running and people-watching. Busy with families picnicking on weekends. Best walks are in cool weather.

Dont bother going here, same as a building site, when finished it will suit people who like to go and sit nx to pigs eating crap and wallowing in extreme humidity. perfect get away for bored persons fond of doing nothing.

A pleasant surprise in the dry region - a walk or a drive on this well maintained green stretch with the calm sea waves is just the thing one would want to feel relaxed.

A nice place to relax, in the evening after a tired days work. Good for an early morning or late evening walk with friends and family, Week ends are particularly crowded with families relaxing & kids flying kites.
