Any time spent with Saudi Aramco expatriates yields a treasure trove of travel experiences.

Centrally located to three continents and serviced by a large international airport, Saudi Arabia is an excellent starting point for vacations to Europe, Asia and Africa. Additionally, as a result of generous vacation schedules and travel allowances, expatriates and their families typically visit their home countries.

Travel in Saudi Arabia is also a popular activity. Here's some of what you can look forward to:

• The Red Sea, with its pristine coral reefs, is widely acknowledged as one of the best scuba-diving spots in the world
• The company's private beaches, which are perfect for picnics and swimming; and the Arabian Gulf's winds and water offer sport for windsurfers and sailors alike
• The country's many historic sites, including the ancient city of Mada'in Salih (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), which are enjoyed by geologists and amateur archeologists
