Al Harth governorate, Administrative governorate in Jazan Province, Saudi Arabia.
Al Harth governorate spans diverse terrain with mountains, plains, and coastal regions along the Red Sea in southern Saudi Arabia. The landscape transitions between elevated and flat areas with direct access to the waterfront.
The governorate was established in 2012 as part of a major administrative reform under King Abdullah that restructured Saudi Arabia. This reorganization created a more updated administrative structure across the nation.
Local markets in the governorate display traditional trading where farmers sell agricultural goods directly to buyers. These face-to-face exchanges remain central to how the community conducts daily commerce.
The city of Al Khubah serves as the administrative hub with government offices, hospitals, and schools for residents and visitors. Most essential services are located there or accessible from that central point.
The region produces coffee beans, making it one of the few places in Saudi Arabia with commercial coffee production. This ability demonstrates the agricultural diversity found in this southern area.
