"Expats considering retiring in Jeddah should be aware that the city is a conservative Islamic society and that they should respect local customs and laws. It is important to note that alcohol and pork are strictly prohibited in Saudi Arabia. Expats should also be aware that the climate in Jeddah is hot and humid, with temperatures reaching up to 40°C in the summer months.
