Saudi Arabia

Haqil

Haqil is a small coastal locale in northwestern Saudi Arabia near the Gulf of Aqaba. The area is not a major dive hub and diving options are limited locally. Nearby, access to coastal waters exists, but there are no well-known dive sites or active centers within the immediate vicinity. For divers, the best approach would be to travel to established Saudi dive centers and sites along the Red Sea coast further south or to the Gulf of Aqaba's renowned sites elsewhere in the region if moving across borders.
