Khobar (Al-Khobar, Al-Khubar) is a city in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia.
[edit] Understand
The newest of the Dammam-Dhahran-Khobar trio, Khobar is generally considered the most pleasant of the bunch, thanks to its seaside location and beachside Corniche.
[edit] Get in
[edit] By plane
The nearest airport is in Dammam.
[edit] By train
Dammam's train station is 15 min away by taxi.
[edit] By bus
The Saudi-Bahraini Transport Company (SABTCO) [1] has five buses daily to Bahrain, see that article for details. The SABTCO office is in the center of the city, just ask any taxi driver.
The nearest main bus station is in Dammam, but SAPTCO [2] also offers direct VIP services from Riyadh to Khobar.
[edit] Get around
Khobar is vast and sprawling, and taxis are quite limited. You really need your own car to get around here.
