Karantina is not only one of the oldest neighborhood of Jeddah, but also the OLDEST black neighborhood in Jeddah maybe the entire Saudi Arabia.
It is located south of downtown Jeddah near the old Jeddah port, as known today by Saudi RAMCO Port. This is where African pilgrims created their first neighborhood, because of its proximity from Jeddah port when they first put food on then Hijaz soil. It's here where they planned they trips to the two holiest cities Mecca and Madinah.
