    Great place to snorkle, we went with our kids (6 and 7 yo), and there was a lot of life in the coral reefs. This beach could have been so much better if just people took care of it and threw trash in the trash bins. There were so many trash bins, spaced litterally a few meters apart. Still people throw things in the sand - the photo is the result of just a few minutes cleaning work in the area where we layed in the sand. And still one of our girl cut their toe on one of these sharp can-lids. Recommend beach-shoes. There are toilet facilities, but bring your own toilet paper (if you don’t like the dousch). A few local men were renting snorkling equipment. It is a beautiful location and since it is free it is well worth a visit, keeping everything above in mind.

    We visited this public beach earlier today as we didn’t feel like spending 30/13 JOD for a day pass at Tala Bay Resort/Berenice Beach Club that are right next door. Japanese garden is a truly amazing snorkeling spot with a lot of life in the coral reefs. The beach has all the necessary amenities such as showers, toilets, benches, sunshades and a playground for kids. There is also a possibility to rent snorkeling equipment and have lunch.

    Great spot to see the Cedar Pride shipwreck. Even when just snorkeling, you can see it very clearly when the sun is out. The ship is located between the 2 red buoys, out from the pier.

    (Translated by Google) A park with a wonderfully beautiful waterfront.. From it we see the borders of Palestine with Egypt in the same Gulf.. Here our eyes lie as we peruse the most beautiful things God created around us.. Where we are separated from Taba and the woes of some watery sea meters.. Glory be to the One who created the separating and collecting waters. The most beautiful and wonderful spots.. (Original) متنزه ذو واجهة بحرية رائعة الجمال .. حيث نرى منه حدود فلسطين مع مصر بنفس الخليج .. وهنا ترقد عيوننا ونحن نطالع أجمل ما خلق الله من حولنا .. حيث يفصلنا عن طابا وايلات بعض من الأمتار البحرية المائية .. سبحان من خلق المياه الفاصلة والمجمعة أجمل البقاع واروعها ..

    Excellent service and cleanliness

  • 5/5 A. N. 1 year ago on Google
    Free parking, easy access for wheelchairs, bins, park for the kids, free beach umbrellas. Despite being the beach and the sand not the most attractive it's diving in the water that this place gives its best. It's worthy spending time swimming and exploring. Japanese garden is somethin special, be sure to reach it! Thank you Ahmed for making this experience so special, and protecting this place. you are a kind, passionate and qualified person! Andrea

  • 3/5 N C. 3 years ago on Google
    You should come to snorkel, but find other places for a family trip to the beach. Free. Dirty, lots of cigarette butts and trash. The shore is very rocky. Wonderful, clear, warm water.

👍 Well, I'm not a fan of this type of clubs but when you are a girl traveling alone and want some piece and privacy, it's definitely the place to be. The entrance is 13JOD, and you have a towel, shower, and changing room. The place is mostly under cameras, so you can either lock your stuff (1 or 2 j...

👍👍 Welcome to the Cedar Pride, the most famous dive site in Jordan for good reason, she is one of the rare wrecks easy accessible from shore. After a short, 130m swim over a sandy bottom, she looms out of the depths before us, imposing in an interesting position – lying intact on her port side with a s...
