Diving in Aqaba: 2 Guided Dives with Wreck & Reef

Dive into Aqaba’s wreck and reefs with gear, guide, and buffet lunch included

A boat dive in Aqaba with two guided dives covering a wreck site and shallow coral reef, suitable for all levels. All diving equipment and a professional instructor are provided, along with a full buffet lunch, drinks, and tea on board. The day runs about 6 hours from pickup to drop-off, with roughly 90 minutes spent at each diving point.

The experience

The dive starts with pickup and a boat ride to the first site. You'll spend around 90 minutes underwater at the wreck, exploring the marine life that has made it a habitat, then return to the boat and travel to the second diving point. The coral reef dive follows the same rhythm: another 90 minutes in the water to see shallow reef gardens, hard and soft corals, and the fish that move through them. The Gulf of Aqaba's conditions are easy enough for all levels, so whether you're certified and experienced or newer to diving, the depth and pace stay within reach.

A professional instructor guides both dives and stays with you throughout. All equipment is provided (tank, wetsuit, weights, mask, fins, the full setup), so you arrive with nothing but your certification card. The boat carries an underwater camera if you want to capture the dive, and the crew handles the logistics of moving between sites and managing air fills.

Between dives and after the water, you'll eat a full buffet lunch on board with tea, coffee, soft drinks, and water. The crew provides towels and keeps the day comfortable. Your guide speaks English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Hungarian, or Romanian, depending on the departure you book.

Is this one for you?You do the diving yourself with a guide in the water, so this suits anyone with a current certification who wants to explore two different ecosystems in one day without arranging their own boat or equipment. The shared boat means you'll dive with other certified divers. If you prefer a private guide and boat, ask the operator about that option at checkout.

Top questions

What languages is the tour guided in?

Live guide in English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Romanian and Hungarian.

What happens if it rains?

It may be canceled due to bad weather. If that happens, you're offered another date or a refund. Free cancellation up to 24 h before the start.

How deep do the wreck and reef dives go in Aqaba?

The wreck dive reaches deeper water while the reef dive stays in shallow gardens, so both are accessible to divers at different experience levels. The operator describes the conditions as easy for all levels, with the depth suited to what you're certified for.

What happens if I've never dived before? Can I still book this?

The two dives are guided and the conditions are easy for all levels, but you'll need a diving certification card to participate. If you don't have one yet, ask the operator about a separate certification course before booking this dive.

Is the underwater camera included in the price, or do I pay extra?

The boat carries an underwater camera and the crew can capture your dive. The reference material lists it as part of the package, so confirm the details when you book to see how the photos are delivered.

How much time do I actually spend underwater versus on the boat?

You spend roughly 90 minutes underwater at each dive site, with travel time between them and surface intervals built into the 6-hour day from pickup to drop-off. The exact rhythm depends on conditions and your group's pace.

What's included in the lunch, and are there options for dietary needs?

A full buffet lunch is served on board with tea, coffee, soft drinks, and water. Contact the operator before booking if you have dietary restrictions so they can plan accordingly.
