Why dive here
With 67+ marine species recorded in the area - including spinner dolphins and lionfish - Katza Eilat קצאא אילת offers some of Aqaba's richest diving. Water ranges 22-29°C, warmest July, August, September.
Katza Eilat sits at a comfortable 18m, making it a good choice for newer divers finding their fins. The main draw here is a small, relatively flat reef area, home to some of the usual Red Sea suspects like parrotfish and small groups of damselfish. It’s a relaxed dive, good for getting re-acclimated to the water or practicing skills without strong currents to worry about. We'd suggest it for those looking for an easy, undemanding dive.
