Al Tayebat Museum
Al Tayebat Museum will offer you a fascinating look into Jeddah’s long and cosmopolitan past for a superbly curated representation of the city’s 3,000-year history. The museum is housed in a multiroom complex that re-creates the traditional Hijazi architecture of the old city, with bay windows overlaid with intricate wooden latticework and ornate coral masonry. With several floors of in-depth exhibits, the museum offers a living history lesson on the foundation of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, and the wider Arabian Peninsula. There is also an entire floor dedicated to the city’s rich Islamic heritage.

Central Fish Market (optional)
The Central Fish Market comes to life at daybreak, selling row upon row of colourful produce fresh from the sea. As the sun rises over the coast, watch fishermen offload their hauls onto over 100 stalls as buyers jostle to bid on the widest selection of fish in Saudi Arabia. Visitors looking to try this noisy, immersive experience will enjoy the full-service offering that sees fish cleaned, prepped, and cooked just hours after being caught. But the good-natured din and vibrant array of fresh catches – not to mention the port’s fascinating role in Jeddah’s history – make the market a photogenic feast even if you’re not eating.
