Dammam → Tarout Island (Qatif): key facts

Private transfer, Dammam Airport (DMM) to Tarout Island (Qatif): the car (1–3 passengers) is €65 and the van (4–8) is €95, a set price for the vehicle that does not change at checkout. Expect 39 km on the road via 605; about 35 min off-peak, 35–50 min in rush hour.

Pickup: The driver waits in the arrivals hall on the Arrivals Level of the King Fahd International Airport passenger terminal, after passport control, baggage claim and customs, holding a sign with your name, and walks with you to the car at the terminal pick-up area. The booking includes flight monitoring and an hour of free waiting from touchdown; your bags are loaded for you.

Tarout Island lies in Tarout Bay off the coast of Qatif, north of Dammam, and is connected to the mainland by causeway roads, so the drive needs no ferry. From the airport the route of about 39 km follows the Airport Road (Route 605) east for some 18 km and then Uhud Road towards the coast and across to the island. There are no tolls. Traffic in Qatif and on the island roads is heavier in the evenings and at weekends.

Tarout is one of the oldest inhabited places on the Gulf coast. Tarout Castle, a mud-brick fort with round towers, stands on a mound in the old village centre, and narrow lanes with traditional houses surround it. Darin, the former pearling and trading port, lies on the southern side of the island with a waterfront and fishing boats. The castle site is fenced, and the lanes of the old village are best explored on foot from the nearest street.

Public transport: The airport buses go only to Dammam city centre and to Khobar.
