All about Dammam
Boasting endless views of the peaceful Arabian Gulf, Dammam is a large modern city thriving in its coastal area. Although well-known for its lush green parks, windmills, and sandy beaches, it is most enjoyable in winter, and with moderate daytime temperatures of 20°C day and 10°C at night. The region also has a growing reputation as an art, sports and entertainment destination. It is home to the first royal street art exhibition, in the region of Al Khobar's Bayonia, and offers many cultural sites and museums.
Immerse yourself in science and innovation at SCITECH, or complete a pop culture at the quirky Taybeen and Al Falah and Al Jowharah museums As it gets dark, navigate the streets of Dammam's Share Al Hob souq, where you can meet vendors, artists and street performers. A short distance south from Dammam, Half Moon Bay was the stop for many Arab traders in the Arabian Gulf. It has become a top fun hobby thanks to a family-friendly setting: The entrance to the cove is shallow and peaceful, and the average water depth is up to 7 m, so a great place to learn to swim or just dip your toes on a warm winter day.
