Saudi Arabia

Duba

Duba is a small coastal town on Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea coast, near the Gulf of Aqaba. The area is more of a regional gateway than a major dive hub. With a handful of nearby dive centers and access to Red Sea sites along the coast, divers often use larger hubs along the Red Sea for a broader selection of dive trips. Conditions are typical of the region: warm water, clear visibility, and desert surroundings. Local diving options are modest, suitable for casual dives and training or day trips from the town, rather than a renowned site-heavy destination.
