Wildlife Trips in Saudi to Celebrate Earth Day.

Al Ahsa Oasis, Al Hasa

Surround your family with Al Ahsa's vibrant marketplaces, wonderful thermal springs, and abundant greenery. Tall, exquisite date palms may be seen at Al Ahsa, which is home to one of the largest oases in the world and is currently a UNESCO World Heritage Site. As you ascend the limestone hills of Al Qarah, pause to thoroughly appreciate the breathtaking vista before venturing inside the maze-like network of caverns and corridors carved out of the rock.

Next, you can head to King Abdullah Environment Park to enjoy the playgrounds, football stadium, mazes, theatre, and water fountain light displays. Alternatively, you can head to Al Ahsa National Park for a family picnic.

Jabal Shada

Don't leave without taking in the breathtaking scenery of Yellow Lake (also known as Asfar Lake) while spending time with your family, connecting over golden sand dunes, and making memories that will last a lifetime. Take a tour around Souq Al Qaisariya, one of Saudi Arabia's oldest markets, before you go to fill up on spices, local perfumes, and mementos to bring home.

Jabal Shada, Al Baha

The Jabal Shada natural reserve, located south of Jeddah, is a less-travelled hot spot for biodiversity with unique rock formations and many indigenous species of plants and animals. Additionally, it is the location of unusual cave formations made of 3,000-year-old Thamudic texts and paintings.

For a truly unique experience, you can visit and stay in one of the stunning architectural structures that Saudi architect Mohammed Nasser Al Shadwee has carved out of caves. Here, you can simultaneously explore Jabal Shada's natural wonders and enjoy the conveniences of modern living, as the cave resorts feature bedrooms, kitchens, and balconies with breathtaking views.

Pick from a range of family-friendly activities to reserve, such as hiking, climbing, and biking—you never know when you could catch a glimpse of the threatened Arabian Leopard on a walk.

Red Sea

Exposing the Red Sea's Red Reefs

Explore the unspoiled charm of the Crimson Sea's undiscovered crimson reefs, a paradise just waiting to be discovered. Snorkelers and scuba divers will find colourful coral gardens and a rainbow of marine life in the clear waters. Every family member will have amazing experiences on this underwater adventure, which has everything from mysterious sea turtles to schools of fish.

Safari in Sharaan

The pristine splendour of Saudi Arabia's fauna may be seen by tourists in the centre of the vast 1.500 square-kilometre Sharaan Nature Reserve near AlUla. Apart from its extensive array of flora and wildlife, the Sharaan Nature Reserve serves as a haven for several endangered species, such as Arabian wolves, large-eared red foxes, red-necked ostriches, Arabian ibex, and Idmi gazelles, among other birds. An important area of conservation effort is the highly endangered Arabian leopard, a rare sighting of wildlife. With a 4x4 adventure with Safari Sharaan, you and your family may explore this protected region of rocky outcrops, wide valleys, open desert, and red-rock canyons as you sit back and enjoy.

Al Ahsa

Soudah's Avian Wonderland

Tucked away in the verdant Aseer area, high in the Soudah Mountains, families may enjoy the excitement of birding while taking in the breath-taking views all around them. Watch rare and unique bird species soar against a backdrop of lush foliage and experience a symphony of colours.
