Yes, it is possible. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's coasts are surrounded by three bodies of water: the Red Sea, the Gulf of Aqaba, and the Arabian Gulf. These waterways facilitate both domestic and international sea cruises. Passengers can travel between different provinces of the Kingdom and to other countries using watercraft that operate from a network of lighthouses, ports, and harbors dedicated to passenger transportation.
