When we asked people living in Saudi Arabia about club and activities where newcomers can meet others, they responded...

"There were many expatriate clubs before the 2004 security incident which caused most westerners to leave. Everything from knitting and drama to golf and scuba diving. They all vanished, but are just startign to come back due to the huge influx of westerners to Yanbu because of the gigantic industrial expansion. There are only two western expatriate compounds - Arabian Homes and The Cove. If you live on either, there are many social activities," remarked another expat who made the move to Yanbu, Saudi Arabia.

"As most expats which come to KSA (Kingdom of Saudi Arabia) are married, and most have children, there are ample activities to get involved in," explained one expat living in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia.
