Shi'b Nazar
Why dive here
Shi'b Nazar is a dive in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Water ranges 26-32°C, warmest July, August, September.
Shi'b Nazar is one of the more consistent sites out of Jeddah, reliable for a pleasant dive. You'll drop onto a sloping reef, home to plenty of Red Sea regulars. We often spot Picasso triggerfish darting about, and the honeycomb corals are a good place to look for small creatures like the Cave cardinal. Keep an eye out for larger pelagics too, as scalloped hammerheads do cruise through here occasionally. It’s a solid pick for a relaxed afternoon dive, suited to most experience levels.
