AQABA International Diving Center - AQABA City

Jordan

With its wealth of other attractions, Jordan's splendid Red Sea resort is often overlooked by modern-day visitors. But apart from being a delightful place for discerning holidaymakers, this is actually a great base from which to explore various places of interest in southern Jordan.

Aqaba is a fun place. It is a microcosm of all the good things Jordan has to offer, including
a fascinating history with some outstanding sites, excellent hotels and activities , superb visitor facilities, good shopping , and welcoming, friendly people, who enjoy nothing more than making sure their visitors have a good time.

Aqaba is a great place to stay if you are planning to visit Wadi Rum and Petra. Day trips can easily be organized and, because the distance is short, you will have more time to spend at the site.

But perhaps Aqaba's greatest asset is the Red Sea itself. Here you can experience some of the best snorkelling and diving in the world. The temperate climate and gentle water currents have created a perfect environment for the growth of corals and a teeming plethora of marine life. Here you can swim with friendly sea turtles and dolphins as they dart amongst the schools of multicoloured fish. Night dives reveal the nocturnal sea creatures, crabs, lobsters and shrimps, as they search for a midnight snack.
