Beach near Taif, Saudi Arabia

Taif Travel Guide

Saudi Arabia

Taif is an inland Saudi Arabian city in the country’s west, with a population of about 695,000. It is set away from the coast, so it is better suited to a city and inland stay than a beach holiday.

Most air travellers arrive through Taif Airport, the city’s listed airport. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of Taif, so coastal trips require travelling farther afield.
