Corniche

The constant buzz of life on the 35km-long Corniche is a microcosm for the whole city. There is no better place in the city for people-watching, as throngs of students, lovers, families and elderly couples stroll along the coast or enjoy a picnic and the sea breeze.

Do & See

Many of the city's attractions and entertainment can be found along the corniche, from bizarre sculptures and a record-breaking fountain to parks, restaurants and museums. But savvy travelers will also want to stray a bit from there to discover the old town with its white coral buildings and historic city gates, or visit some of the city's fantastic museums. There are also mosques, markets and a top-notch aquarium to explore, so visitors to Jeddah are sure to have a full itinerary.
