👍👍 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.

Cedar Pride
Tourist attraction
👍👍 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...

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...

محطة العلوم البحرية

👍👍 Marine Science Station.
One of the landmarks of the city of Aqaba. D, located on the southern shore.
The contents of the place of live marine animals are more than wonderful, and the place from the inside is distinguished by the way it is presented and organized.
But the outdoor garden needs a lot o...

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...
