Obhur Beach (North Jeddah)

Obhur is different — the water is calmer, clearer, and the whole area feels more like a weekend escape even though it’s close to the city. You’ll see boats moving in and out all day, people doing jet ski runs, and families heading to the calmer public sides where kids can swim safely. Some parts are private and you can’t enter, but the public areas still get plenty of visitors, especially after Asr.

Snorkeling near the small reef spots is popular, and wallah the water there looks amazing when the sun hits it right. The vibe is half-city, half-resort. You forget Jeddah is only a few minutes away.
