جزيرة المرجان, Artificial island in Dammam, Saudi Arabia.
Coral Island is an artificial island off Dammam connected to the mainland by a rock corridor approximately 1.8 km (1.1 miles) long. The site features walking paths that circle the perimeter with viewing areas and several attractions distributed across its grounds.
The island was constructed in 1991 as one of the first artificial development projects on Saudi Arabia's eastern coast. It has since evolved into a major recreational destination for the region.
The King Abdullah Cultural Center on the island presents local and regional traditions through exhibitions and educational programs throughout the year.
You can visit daily in the afternoon hours with free access to the main areas of the site. Wear comfortable shoes since exploring the walking paths and attractions involves substantial walking.
The island features a dolphin center where visitors can watch daily performances and participate in structured programs with marine animals. This marine attraction draws many visitors who come specifically for this experience.
