Why dive here
With 60+ marine species recorded in the area - including spinner dolphins and lionfish - Gorgone One offers some of Aqaba Marine Park's richest diving. Water ranges 22-29°C, warmest July, August, September.
Gorgone One sits within Aqaba Marine Park, a generally relaxed dive. We usually find it fairly quiet, making for a peaceful dive among the gorgonian fans that give the site its name. Expect to see the usual Red Sea suspects like parrotfish and wrasse, with nudibranchs often tucked away if you look closely. It’s a good spot for an easygoing afternoon dive, particularly if you’re keen on macro life.
