Makkah Province · Red Sea coast
UNESCO Al-Balad, coral islands and the Corniche — the gateway city, savoured.
Jeddah is where most pilgrims land — and where most leave without looking. Give it a day before or after your Umrah: walk the coral-stone lanes of Al-Balad, sail to Bayada's sandbank, and pray Maghrib by the sea at the Floating Mosque.
Best time: October to April — sea breezes and pleasant evenings.
Things to do
Coral-stone tower houses, Naseef House, Bab Makkah and the souqs pilgrims have traded in for 1,400 years — with a licensed local guide.
