Jeddah Waterfront and Corniche
Families flock to the Waterfront and Corniche for low-key seaside entertainment, with most activities free or budget-friendly.
Free Activities and Sights
This iconic stretch offers breathtaking Red Sea views, perfect for no-cost sightseeing. Long paths welcome walking, jogging, and cycling, while public parks, playgrounds, and picnic spots cater to all ages. Catch King Fahd’s Fountain shooting skyward—stunning at night when lit up—and visit the nearby legendary mosque for prayers.
Low-Cost Outings
Rent bikes or electric carts (SAR 20–50/hour) to explore the full Corniche length. Near the refreshing waters, try paid water sports like parasailing, kayaking, banana boats, or jet skis amid vibrant coral reefs and marine life.
Water Activity Ticket Prices:
