Yeda Scuba Diving
Description
Diving in Jeddah allows participants to swim among coral reefs and old shipwrecks, where the Red Sea harbors historical memories and vibrant marine life. This experience promises to be unforgettable!
Activity Details
At the scheduled time, we'll meet at 3144 Mahmoud Al Halabi. Here, we'll begin with a brief introduction and fit our diving equipment before boarding the boat that will take us into an aquatic adventure. All aboard!
After approximately 40 minutes of sailing, we'll arrive at the first dive site. We'll descend slowly into the water, exploring the coral gardens, where fan-shaped corals sway like curtains and schools of fish shimmer like coins in the sunlight.
At reefs such as Anas or Duqais, we'll encounter curious groupers, brightly colored parrotfish, and sea turtles. After some time, we will return to the surface to rest on board, sharing impressions while heading to the second dive site. During this journey, refreshments and snacks will be provided to regain our energy.
The second dive will focus on old cargo shipwrecks, where we'll shift our exploration to hulls that have become habitats for marine life. In locations such as Ann Ann or Chicken Wreck, we will swim through corridors open to the sea, where moray eels, lionfish, and nudibranchs reside.
Finally, we'll return to the original meeting point, concluding our adventure after approximately 7 hours.
