    Destination Reef is a shallow, relaxed dive in Jeddah, ideal for newer divers getting comfortable in the Red Sea. The reef plate here generally sits around 23 meters, making for easy bottom times and good natural light penetration. We’ve spotted parrotfish, a few moray eels tucked into crevices, and sometimes a passing snapper school. It’s a solid spot for knocking off a few certification dives or shaking off the rust.
