KAUST is the best place you can play golf in Jeddah. I played once there and it was amazing. Just love to spend my weekend playing golf in that place.

Is that golf field open for nonresidents ? KUAST is in Thuwal, 90 something kilometers, you go all the way from Jeddah alone ? May I please know how ? I used to go to Thuwal to rent fishing boats, nice harbor and good fishing spots.

KAUST is the best place for living in Jeddah, lucky you

I used to come to KAUST every weekend for the beach, meeting my friends, golf, cinema, ...etc but I stopped going there since I joined the Medical college.

Are working there?
