For a long time, Dahban was a fishing center until Durrat Al-Arus opened in 1996, which made it also a tourist village.[citation needed] Dahaban lies on the main highway running along the west coast of Saudi Arabia between Jeddah and Rabigh. Dahaban has now turned into a picnic spot for families to visit fresh fish restaurants and in 2015, the first marine park was inaugurated, which attracted visitors.[1]
