Why dive here
With 60+ marine species recorded in the area - including spinner dolphins and lionfish - Black Rock offers some of Aqaba Marine Park's richest diving. Water ranges 22-29°C, warmest July, August, September.
Black Rock offers a pleasant dive within Aqaba Marine Park, well-suited for divers seeking a relaxed exploration. The site features a rocky reef structure, home to a scattering of resident fish species. It’s a good option for a second dive or for divers who appreciate quieter spots away from the busier wrecks. We’d suggest keeping an eye out for small nudibranchs along the rocks.
