Jeddah, Muharram 28, 1448 AH, corresponding to July 13, 2026, SPA - The agricultural areas north of Jeddah Governorate are witnessing a remarkable transformation in their economic and tourism identity, as many owners of traditional farms have taken the initiative to convert their green spaces into tourist resorts and attractive rural inns. This shift aligns with the goals of Saudi Vision 2030 to diversify income sources and support domestic tourism, and meets the growing demand from residents and visitors of the Bride of the Red Sea for natural and quiet destinations away from the city's hustle. For decades, the region north of Jeddah has been known for its farms that supply the local market with vegetables, fruits, and dates. Today, investors are redrawing the map of these lands by merging agricultural activity with recreational activity. The farm is no longer just a place for production but has turned into integrated resorts featuring rustic villas, private pools, green spaces prepared for seating, and children's play areas, while maintaining the agricultural identity of the place by retaining palm and citrus trees that give visitors the experience of living in the lap of nature. The impact of this transformation is not limited to the recreational aspect but extends to creating new job opportunities for Saudi youth in hospitality, event management, and rural tourism guidance, and contributes to enhancing environmental awareness and preserving vegetation cover north of Jeddah, turning neglected areas into green lungs that serve the environmental sanitation of the region. As this promising sector continues to grow, the farms of North Jeddah prove that investing in nature is the future choice, transforming from mere production fields into leading tourist destinations that compete with traditional beach resorts, writing a new chapter of sustainable tourism in the Kingdom. // End // 21:30 T M 0179
