Recently I went to South Beach near Aqaba in Jordan, not even knowing about the Japanese Garden. The beach was almost entirely empty and I enjoyed that very much. While sunbathing, Ayesh, a snorkeling instructor, approached me offering his snorkeling equipment to rent for exploring the nearby coral reef. What a surprise it was to find out about this special coral reef right there within my reach. I’ve never seen underwater vistas before in my life so it was very tempting. There was a big obstacle though… I’m a very weak swimmer… I mentioned this to Ayesh and he offered me his help. Step by step he explained how and what I need to do. He showed me hand signs for communication under water, in case I panic. He also offered me a life jacket which I didn’t take because he made me feel very safe swimming next to him while he was watching over me. He then showed me all the amazing things that were there for you to see, making sure I didn’t miss anything. It was my first time snorkeling ever and I liked it so much I ended up going for another round again and again with Ayesh’s assistance. I never thought that such a weak swimmer like I am could have this unforgettable experience of seeing a coral reef in real live... When the sun was starting to set Ayesh recommended that I should go snorkeling one final time to see different sea creatures that come out in the early evening at dusk. Ayesh knows that corral reef very well. I saw a Lion Fish, eels and many other colorful fish and plants. If you ever find yourself at the South Beach in Aqaba, Jordan, look for Ayesh near the area with beach umbrellas. He has snorkeling equipment for rent and will show you the Japanese Garden and other beautiful sights even if you are a weak...

Минавайки покрай върха и над огромна корала от маруля, пред вас се разпространява голям, вълнообразен риф. Рифовите риби са навсякъде, обучават се и се хвърлят между огромни древни коралови маси и клони на неуловимия черен корал. Костенурки и орелови лъчи обикалят рифа, като хвърлят сенки долу. Японските градини на Акаба са калейдоскоп от живот и цвят на Червено море. Ще бъде лесно да използвате целия си резервоар тук, между 10-12м, където живият риф предлага многобройни макро-отклонения. Това е като подводен калейдоскоп - гмуркането в Червено море е най-доброто, с гръбначни и безгръбначни, които са здраво представени из целия борд. От морски легла, които пресичате при влизане ... Но нека продължим. Рифът се спуска постепенно до 24 метра, а тук стигаме до внезапен спад на изток. Този участък от рифа е дом на още по-голяма гама от твърди и меки коралови видове и по-големи пелагични риби, които влизат в тази зона, за да се хранят с рифа. Често се наблюдава лек ток в тази област, дължащ се на прилива и дъното. ... до училищата на рифовите риби, които се преплитат в плитчините (рай за шнорхел!) ... Няколко метра по-дълбоко, и ние сме над капка в Черно Кораловата долина - невероятни екземпляри точка подводния пейзаж по протежение на стената и наклонено дъно между 26 и 30 метра. Повечето водолази се връщат обратно в цикъла, като слагат предпазния си край на рифа. Просто бъдете внимателни при последното изкачване, тъй като районът е много популярен с гмуркане с шнорхел и обиколки с лодка от стъкло. ... до самата разнообразна Японска градина (известна в Акаба заради своите девствени черни коралови долини). Ако вместо това продължихме от долината на Черния корал, щяхме да напуснем японските градини и да се отправим към техническата територия за гмуркане - и към корабокрушението с теглене на шлеп, умишлено затънало през 1999 г., след като стрелата на крана й буквално падна през дъното на корпуса. Гмуркане на японски градини, ще видите очарователен морски живот на всеки метър от пътя. Тъй като е било твърде скъпо да я спасим, само водолазите могат да се насладят на масивните трюмове на Тайюн и морски събрания днес; често се използва като място за декомпресионни гмуркания, с максимална дълбочина от 57 м на върха на кърмовия си кран и 35-40 м по протежение на пристанището й (тя лежи на десния си борд). Тук ще видите уникални за района гъби, както и впечатляващ мек коралов растеж около крана и рулевата рубка и надстройката. Техническите водолази използват японските градини като място за провеждане, за да преживеят развалините на Tayong, извън пределите на...

Great place for snorkeling! We came there day after day, as it is so beautiful. Simple access from the public beach near the marine center. A taxi from Aqaba center is 10 JD. You can find many corals and fish. The corals are big, beautiful and most imoportantly alive (sadly the corals in Eilat are mostly dead, even though there are many more fish). Just follow the rope in direction of the large yellow float and circle to the left. You will love what you see. In addition a sunked ship is close by swimming. It is quite large and a very nice experience. It is marked with orange float so you can't miss...

This is an absolute must-visit for snorkelers in Aqaba! The diversity of corals and fish here is truly amazing. It's a local beach with all the necessary facilities, which is really convenient. However, a word of caution, particularly for female visitors: some local guys can be annoying. It's generally quieter during weekdays before sunset, which can be a better time to enjoy the beauty with more peace. Overall, for the snorkeling alone, it's highly recommended!

We recently went snorkeling here while we were in Aqaba. We arranged for a taxi cab to drive us here and pick us up at a prearranged time for 15 Dinar. We rented our fins, masks and snorkels locally (two pairs) for 30 Dinar total. We went on a weekday, so the beach was virtually empty. The dive conditions were good, and the reef and fish were quite healthy. Our only complaint was garbage in the water and on the shoreline.
