Island Mosque

مسجد الجزيرة

A small white mosque designed by Abdel Wahed El-Wakil, standing on a rocky islet just off the Corniche. It is a classic sunset silhouette.

The Island Mosque is one of a series of small mosques designed by architect Abdel Wahed El-Wakil along the Jeddah Corniche. It was built in the 1980s. Its white dome and minaret stand on a small rocky islet that extends into the sea and is connected to the shore by a short causeway. At sunset, the mosque is reflected on the water as a silhouette, making it a classic photo spot on the Corniche. You can walk along the Corniche to pair it with the Floating Mosque. Please do not disturb worshippers during prayer times.
