Tour description
Jordan is a country steeped in history with dramatic landscapes, memorable excursions, and fringing reefs offering unspoilt diving. Why not float in the Dead Sea and explore the ancient city of Petra on your way to the gulf in Aqaba? There you can dive canyons, walls and drop offs without worry of over-crowding or over-diving. We put together the 'Jewels of Jordan' week-long itinerary based on the most popular request of clients who want to see the best of Jordan. All the dive sites in Jordan are located very close to the shore line so both boat and shore diving access the same sites, it is just a matter of which mode of transport is preferred. The diving along this coast line is very good relative to other diving in the Northern Red Sea. It is an excellent choice for both beginners and the more experienced diver. There is some especially exciting diving close to the Saudi border where you will find deep walls only very recently discovered! There is also one of the best wreck dives in the Red Sea here, the 'Cedar Pride' - this is an astonishing dive!! Visibility averages around 35-40m throughout the area. During plankton blooms, usually April/May, this may diminish to 10-15m but to compensate mid summer visibility can extend beyond 50m. All of our holidays are tailor-made to your specification, so please just use this tour as a guide. Please contact our Dive Travel Consultants for availability, single supplements, or changes to this itinerary so that we can put together the perfect bespoke holiday to the deserts and dive sites of Jordan for you.
