A 1.5 km seaside promenade with Red Sea leading lines and evening lighting.
The Jeddah Waterfront is the paved seaside promenade on the North Corniche in the Ash Shati district of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. A mapped 1.5 km segment runs along the water with open Red Sea views. The best frame is the promenade leading lines and the sea at blue hour, when the lighting comes on. A 16-35 mm lens and a compact tripod suit the long lines. Mornings are quiet and give calm water. Visitors keep clear of walkers and ask before photographing people. The waterfront is reached by car, taxi, Uber or Careem and is about 13 km north of Historic Jeddah.
