Kuwait City

Waterfront sights in Kuwait City

  1. Corniche

    Comprising over 10km of winding paths, parks and beaches on Arabian Gulf St (sometimes referred to locally as Gulf Rd), the corniche is marked at its southern end by the Scientific Center and at its northernmost point by the Kuwait Towers. Stop off at any one of the many beaches, restaurants or coffeehouses to watch a desert sunset, or, on hot summer evenings, enjoy being part of the throng of people flocking to the sea to catch the breeze.

    The private residences, some of which belong to the ruling family, light up the opposite side of the corniche spectacularly at night.
