If the most exciting thing that\u00a0usually happens on your\u00a0weekends is getting up to answer the door to a pizza delivery, then you need to get in touch with your wild side.<\/p>\n

Saudi has so many exciting activities you can do, either with a group or friends or on your own, that will spice up your free time in a big way.<\/p>\n

Here are the top things we are\u00a0dying\u00a0<\/em>to do, in the Kingdom:<\/p>\n

1. Dive under the sea\u00a0<\/h3>\n

Scuba and snorkelling have been a favourite past-time for people in Jeddah. Since the city is so close to the Red Sea, it is imperative that one go under the sea and witness another dimension to the Kingdom’s beauty.<\/p>\n

Corals, fish, lots of vibrant colors and just the thrill of being underwater will have you feelin’ all sorts of adventurous. There’s a variety of scuba diving places that help train and walk you through the whole thing.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But one we’d highly recommend is\u00a0Desert Sea Divers<\/a>, click the blue hyperlink\u00a0for more info.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

2. Drive to the Edge of The World\u00a0<\/h3>\n

Located some 96km\u00a0from Riyadh, a drive to this rocky area called the Tuwaiq Escarpment will leave you breathless. But also, it’ll give you a sense of pride- especially if you make it to the edge.<\/p>\n

Although, we wouldn’t fully advise for you to take a selfie right by the steep. Just for safety’s sake.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

3. Take a flight in Jeddah… or fly an aircraft yourself\u00a0<\/h3>\n

4. Sandsurfing\/ sandboarding at the dunes\u00a0<\/h3>\n

Take full advantage of the fact that we live in a land surrounded by desert.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

5. Dune Bashing\u00a0<\/h3>\n

Although it’s advisable to sit and enjoy the ride with a highly-trained driver first, this should take you lots of lessons and practice before you venture your Jeep or cruiser and take it to\u00a0the sands.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/center><\/p>\n

6. Trekking<\/h3>\n

Another sure-fire way to get your adrenaline rushing!<\/p>\n

There’s even a few notable trekking spots in the Kingdom that makes you spoilt for choice. From the Edge of The World, Jabal Dakha in Taif, or even the Wahba Crater.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

Exploring while getting your health freak on = best combo.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
