Khobar, Commercial port city in Eastern Province, Saudi Arabia
Al Khobar extends along the Persian Gulf coast, forming part of the Dammam metropolitan area with its neighboring cities Dammam and Dhahran.
The Dawasir tribe established Al Khobar in 1923, and the discovery of oil in the region transformed it from a fishing village into a major commercial center.
The waterfront corniche serves as a central gathering point where residents participate in outdoor activities and celebrate traditional festivals throughout the year.
King Fahd International Airport, located 50 kilometers from the city center, connects Al Khobar to international destinations through regular flights.
Half Moon Bay features extended beaches and marine activities, while Suwaiket Street maintains traditional markets dating back to the city's early days.
