NEOM has kicked off its Discover NEOM tour in Jeddah to promote investment opportunities in the $500 billion mega project in Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea.

With NEOM having moved to the building phase of the project and the first destination – Sindalah – due to open its doors in 2024, the tour, which will take place in cities in around the Kingdom, forms part of NEOM’s ongoing efforts to highlight the rapid progress it has been making across its various sectors and across NEOM regions including THE LINE, TROJENA, OXAGON and Sindalah Island.

The opening of the Discover NEOM KSA tour in Saudi Arabia’s second-largest city saw several industry pioneers, entrepreneurs and prominent investors meet with top executives from NEOM to explore future opportunities.

The meetings offered attendees engaging discussions to learn how the project is accelerating human progress, driving ground-breaking innovation and attracting the brightest minds from the Kingdom and the world – pioneers who are aiming to serve as an engine for the Kingdom’s economy, create jobs, support the country’s progress and augment its non-oil GDP.

The various talks discussed in detail how NEOM will redefine sectors based on the circular economy, champion the best sustainability practices and preserve natural resources.

NEOM and it’s Sindalah, as surreal and controversial the whole project is, it is happening.
The first guests are to be welcome on the island at the beginning of 2024.

It will be the first of ten completed regions of the megacity of NEOM in northwestern Saudi Arabia. Sindalah is well located for European boat owners and accessible via the Suez Canal.



Soon enough we will find out if it will become the new favorite yachting or golfing destination.

Work in Saudi Arabia’s futuristic city of NEOM is steady and on the right track where 20 percent of the project’s infrastructure has been completed, NEOM’s CEO Nadhmi al-Nasr told Al Arabiya on Thursday.

“I can say that we have finished what amounts to 20 percent of [NEOM’s] infrastructure and work is ongoing in 2023,” al-Nasr told Al Arabiya on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos. “The most important thing is being able to expand the infrastructure to all areas where we are ready to start building.”

As a main gateway to the Red Sea, Sindalah Island is expected to be the first project to open and to welcome visitors starting early 2024, NEOM CEO said.

There will be three hotels in total. Sindalah will provide 333 luxury serviced apartments and 413 ultra-premium hotel rooms. There will also be 51 upscale shopping centers. By giving golfers access to a top-notch 6,474-yard (5,920-meter) par 70 courses, the appeal of Sindalah as a destination for golf vacations is also projected to rise. With its 18 tees, the golf course provides two nine-hole experiences.

“Sindalah will be NEOM’s first luxury island and yacht club destination in the Red Sea, providing a scenic gateway to the Red Sea that will become the region’s most exciting and attractive tourism location. It will be a destination where travelers can experience the true beauty of NEOM and Saudi Arabia, above and below the water, making Sindalah the future of luxury travel.”
