Al-Ghandour Beach
Beach
😐 This beach is a mixed bag of tricks. You can enjoy it the best if you think of it as a local cultural experience for its party atmosphere rather than your typical suntanning spot where you can lie around undisturbed. Jordanians come to hang out here with family and friends, smoke shisha, barbecue, l...

Berenice Beach Club / شاطئ ومنتجع برنيس العقبه
Tourist attraction
👍 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...

Wadi Rum Visitor Center
Tourist information center
👍 This is just a review of the visitors centre which was fine. Wadi Rum itself is a really interesting place with lots to see and do. I've added the official price list for tours (top in a Jeep, bottom with a camel) because I couldn't find anywhere as a reference for that. Prices as of Nov. 23. Also v...

Arab Revolt Plaza
Plaza
👍👍 Been here in December 2011, right after the Syrian revolution had started. We didn’t know it until we arrived at a hotel in Aqaba and had a chance to watch a tv news.
There were many Syrian refugees. I met some of them, about four family of approximately 30 people arrived on a bus. They couldn’t af...

Japanese Garden (Snorkeling Site)

👍👍 A fantastic place to visit for snorkeling and swimming. No entry fee, and there shades and benches available. There is also Public toilets there.
Just be aware when snorkeling. Stay within the marked area, outside those areas have sea urchins and you can really get hurt by them.
The coral life is am...

Aqaba Aquarium معرض الأحياء البحرية
Aquarium
😠 Sad, sad, sad. Dead fish in the tanks, a lonesome seaturtle, a crocodile in a caged area 3x3 meters. Fish were dead in tanks and the tanks that did look good were too full.
They should empty all the tanks back into the sea and close this place, this is not an aquarium, it's a place of torture for f...

👍👍 We just had the most amazing time with Coral Garden! We had a group where some did snorkeling and others diving and we all had a great experience with Mo, Ahmed and Saja. It was a fantastic morning and a great experience in Aqaba where you get more than what you are paying for, would definitely reco...
