The Gardens in Aqaba offers a pleasant reef dive, easily accessible for most skill levels. You’ll find a gently sloping coral garden with plenty of reef fish darting between the formations. It’s a good spot for a relaxed second dive or for newer divers looking to build confidence. We’ve found it generally calm with decent visibility, making for an enjoyable outing.
