Qatif or Al-Qatif or القطيف Al-Qaṭīf is a governorate and urban area located in Eastern Province, Saudi Arabia. It extends from Ras Tanura and Jubail in the north to Dammam in the south, and from the Persian Gulf in the east to King Fahd International Airport in the west. This region has its own municipality and includes the Qatif downtown and many other smaller cities and towns.
Qatif is one of the oldest settlements in the eastern side of the Arabian peninsula, its history going back to 3500 BC. Qatifi people used to work as merchants, farmers, and fishers. However, in recent years, after the discovery of oil and establishment of Jubail Industrial City, most of Qatifi’s people are working in oil, industry, public services, education and health care sectors.
