The Red Sea in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia is home to some of the world’s most spectacular diving spots. Its coastline stretches across 1800 km, and is renowned for its natural, untouched beauty.
“We really have amazing diving conditions. We have beautiful marine life,” said Samah Al Baiti. She is an open water scuba instructor at Dive Point in Jeddah. “You really need to come and see it for yourself”, she added.
The coral reefs are a stunning natural habitat with 1200 species of fish and 300 different types of coral. Some of the most unique and rarest fish can be found in the Red Sea, such as the world’s fastest fish, the Black Marlin.
Diving enthusiasts can also expect to see lionfish, barracuda, stingrays, turtles, and octopus as they explore the deep blue and turquoise waters.
