With regards to the differences between boat and shore diving, we would highly recommend shore diving for your course experience. With shore diving, we have greater flexibility to complete skills at your own pace (the boat tour is a fixed time period), and the gradual descent on the shore dives versus the deep water entry for the boat dives allows more inexperienced divers to feel comfortable and adjust to the experience at a more relaxed pace.
With over 20 amazing locations along the Jordanian coastline and many of the sites extending from the beach, Aqaba the perfect place for learning to dive.
