Dammam visit

I'm visiting Dammam for three days won business in September (after spending four days before in Dubai)

Is it worth spending an extra day for sightseeing and fly out late Saturday night or go to Abu Dhabi for 24 hours (am flying home from there)

Thanks..

Having been in Dammam and Al Khobar for 3 days last week I'd opt for Abu Dhabi.
Nothing wrong with Dammam, and business left me little time to look around, but I suspect Abu Dhabi has more to see.
The area I was in didn't seem that walkable, but even if it was the 116F / 46C temps had me venturing out for short distances and only in the evening.

I just spent a couple of days in Dammam this week (Kempinski al Khobar). Would definitely suggest you use your spare time in AD rather than there.
