Princess MA, air temperature is pleasant to chilly depending on what kind of weather you're used to.  It might be a little cold to swim in the evenings, considering the lower temperature and wind chill.

Not sure about restrictions at the beach.  Someone who's familiar might answer that.

we are living here in KHOBAR .. in the evening the weather is chilly and even we dont go TO half moon for BBQ asince last month ,, regarding female they can go there with famlies sit there and do a family gathering like in any public park but swming is for female is not allowed ,, if u want swming  u can hair BAHER BEACH VILLA ..3000SAR/NIGHT AND U CAN DO it in there in small pool beside sea in coverd area ... otherwise swmingfor female is not allowed.

Baha Villa's entry fee is 50sr...wasn't sure about the 3000sr. It's definitely not worth that much. Might as well go to the Aramco or Holiday Inn for that kind of entry fee!

I meant would the weather in December be suitable for my kids to swim??
