Beach near Abha, Saudi Arabia

Abha Travel Guide

Saudi Arabia

Abha is a city in south-western Saudi Arabia with a population of 210,886. It is inland rather than a coastal destination, so visitors come for the city and surrounding Asir region rather than for a beach holiday.

Most travellers arriving by air use Abha Regional Airport, also known by the code AHB. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of Abha, so coastal excursions require travelling beyond the nearby area.
