Residential Options 

One of the most popular places to live for residents, especially international expatriates, is in one of Jeddah’s compounds.  These upscale residential areas are specifically designed to offer a superior standard of living with an array of amenities on offer including sports grounds and social clubs.   Residents can expect to experience a different side of Saudi Arabia in these compounds with a community-driven nightlife and a plentiful selection of activities to past the time from Arabic lessons to musical performances.   

Coastal Entertainment 

One of the best things about living in Jeddah is its positioning on the beautiful Red Sea coast.  With its enviable waterfront location, it is ideal for residents and tenants who love to indulge in an array of water-based activities and want to enjoy the stunning views.  There is so much to do and experience in the city from golfing and horse riding to museums, consulates to restaurants, fashion shows to family events, sailing, fishing, wind surfing, water skiing, volleyball and more.  There is an exclusive marina, private beach clubs and elite seaside resorts that cater to the top echelons of society.  You also will definitely want to check out the diving since the Red Sea has a great eco-system with its own coral reef, manta rays, whale sharks and triggerfish.  

Culinary Attractions 

Dining out in Jeddah is surprisingly popular, especially when it comes to fine dining.  There are numerous international cuisines to try including Chinese, French, Indian, Indonesian, Japanese, Lebanese, Mexican, Thai, Turkish and Arabic.  Shopping is also huge in Jeddah, with a wide variety of malls and outlets to suit any budget and personality.  Other fantastic attractions and things to experience including visiting a local fish market, walking the Corniche, trying out a theme park or shopping in the souq in Al-Balad, the old town centre.  You can even book a guided camping trip to the desert when you want a short trip out of the city.
