Al Khobar KSA:Help
Hi, just started a new job near Al Khobar a week or so ago. Unfortunately I'm in a company compound rather than one of the ex pats compounds, so there is little or nothing to do outside work. Is there an ex pats community or any sort of social scene in the area? I'm going to be working out here for a while so any help or suggestions would be gratefully received. Cheers m'dears.

You need to get into ARAMCO Compound, as a visitor, where there is a rich and varied social life.! Difficult but it can be done.

Aramco "Camp" is more than a site. Next to the US Consulate it is HUGE and has its own golf course and cemetery (the only place in KSA where non-muslims can be buried !)

If you have a multiple then Bahrain is always a good option for weekends. Suggest it would not be of any benefit to put an unsolicited post on the Aramco Expats website as it will likely be ignored. |

There are social life options available in Al Khobar which are not limited to Aramco, of course they are "underground" and you have the catch 22 situation of needing to know someone to get an invite. If your work colleague is not new he should know someone who can get you in somewhere, otherwise, I can help you out with an introduction - PM me.
