Why dive here
With 67+ marine species recorded in the area - including spinner dolphins and lionfish - The Border Line, Eilat - מעבר גבול offers some of Aqaba's richest diving. Water ranges 22-29°C, warmest July, August, September.
We’ve all heard of it, and yes, it’s exactly what it sounds like – a dive right along the maritime border between Jordan and Israel. At only 15 meters deep, it's not about the depth here, but the drift. You'll need an expert understanding of currents because they can be fickle, pulling you one way then another without much warning. Look out for schools of barracuda cruising in the blue, and we’ve often spotted some impressive Napoleon wrasse making their rounds. It’s a unique badge of honor for those who like their diving with a side of geopolitical quirk.
