Day tour

The corniche and the Floating Mosque

  • 1 Day
  • Half day

The Corniche in Jeddah stretches for 30 kilometres along the seafront, and this half day follows part of it on foot and part of it by vehicle. King Fahd Fountain, at 312 metres, is visible from across the city and stays in view for much of the walk.

The route also takes in the Art Promenade, a quiet stretch of the waterfront that runs down to the marina, and finishes at the Floating Mosque looking out over the Red Sea. It pairs well with Historic Jeddah on a second half day.
