    The Aquarium House Reef in Aqaba is a straightforward shore dive, popular for its ease of access. You'll find a gentle slope of hard corals, home to plenty of damselfish, wrasse, and the occasional lionfish tucked into a crevice. It’s a good spot for a relaxed shallow dive or for refreshing skills, though don't expect dramatic topography.
