Yanbu Travel Guide

Saudi Arabia

Yanbu is a city of around 200,000 people in western Saudi Arabia, on the Red Sea coast. It is in the Medina Region and uses Saudi Arabia’s standard time throughout the year.

Most visitors arriving by air use Yanbu Airport (YNB), which serves the city. Although Yanbu is coastal, there are no named notable beaches within 40 kilometres, so beach trips should not be the main basis for planning a short stay.
