Beach description
Farasan Al Kabir attracts diving fans and lovers of quite rest. People come here to go boating in the middle of the wilderness, enjoy beautiful scenery, get some fresh air. Here are ideal conditions for swimming and sunbathing.
Despite the huge number of advantages, this beach is still almost empty. There are no noisy bars, clubs, souvenir shops and other "gifts of globalization." Only two hotels work here, but it's difficult to book rooms in advance.
For now, Farasan Al Kabi remains a paradise for wildlife fans. But every year more and more tourists come here. Don't delay the visit of this place to see the primeval beauty of the island. Maybe in 5 years it'll turn into typical resort of Saudi Arabia.
Near the beach there is an Ottoman Fort, ancient mosques, picturesque village, coral houses. People can get here by fairy, which runs from the port of Jizan 2 times a day.
When is the best time to go?
The period from November to April, when the sweltering heat and strong winds peculiar for the summer months have not yet come, is considered the best time to visit the eastern coast of Saudi Arabia. The temperature of air and sea water at this time is approximately the same and does not exceed 28-29 degrees.
