Dammam, Port city in Eastern Province, Saudi Arabia

Dammam extends along the Persian Gulf coast with modern buildings, wide boulevards, industrial zones, and residential neighborhoods spanning the waterfront area.

The settlement transformed from a small fishing village into a major urban center after the discovery of oil reserves in the Eastern Province during 1938.

The waterfront corniche serves as a central gathering space where families participate in outdoor activities, markets, and social events throughout the year.

King Fahd International Airport connects Dammam to global destinations, while an extensive network of highways links the city to other Saudi urban centers.

The metropolitan area contains the headquarters of Saudi Aramco, the largest oil company worldwide, which manages the national petroleum resources.
