Mohammed Al-Otaibi, CEO of Ajdan Real Estate Development Company, said: “Bayfront offers exceptional quality-of-life to transform Al-Khobar into one of the top 100 global cities which is one of the Saudi Vision 2030’s realization plans.
“We will follow the Blue Flag requirements to increase the quality of services in the project’s facilities and enhance the region’s beach experience by developing an extraordinary destination to attract visitors to Al-Khobar.”
The Blue Flag standards include stringent international technical and environmental requirements and conditions compatible with the kingdom’s principles in supporting the environment’s safety and promoting its recreational and tourism credentials.
Blue Flag is one of the world’s most recognised voluntary awards for beaches, marinas, and sustainable boating tourism operators. In order to qualify for the Blue Flag, a series of stringent environmental, educational, safety, and accessibility criteria must be met and maintained.
