Dive briefing
The Cedar Pride Shipwreck is one of Aqaba’s most iconic dive sites and a must-visit location for wreck diving enthusiasts. The sunken cargo ship now serves as an artificial reef, providing a thriving habitat for marine life and coral growth. Over time, the wreck has transformed into a living ecosystem where fish and other sea creatures gather around the structure. Divers can explore the exterior of the wreck, observing its massive structure and the marine life that has colonized it. The site offers excellent opportunities for underwater photography and an immersive diving experience that blends history with marine ecology. Schools of fish, corals, and other marine organisms make the wreck a vibrant underwater attraction.
