Aqaba, a Jordanian coastal city, is unmissable for its vibrant Red Sea atmosphere, rich history, and stunning marine life. The standout attraction is the Aqaba Fort, a 16th-century stronghold that now serves as a museum showcasing the city's Ottoman and Arabic heritage. What truly sets Aqaba apart, however, is the opportunity to snorkel or dive the world-famous Aqaba Coral Reef, home to an incredible array of tropical fish and coral species. The best time to visit Aqaba is from March to May, when the weather is warm and sunny, making it ideal for water activities. For first-timers, we recommend booking a guided snorkeling tour to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience amidst the vibrant marine life.
Budget travellers can explore Aqaba for around $81/day, covering basic accommodation (from $52/night) and street meals (from $8 each). Mid-range travellers should budget $147/day with comfortable hotels from $83/night. Upscale stays start at $201/night. All figures in USD based on 26+ live listings.
