Saudi Arabia · CRUISES & BOAT TOURS
This is the shortlist you would send a friend: 3 boat trips worth the money, each with its price, its traveller verdict and the one thing to know before you commit.
Join Haddad Scuba for a six-hour Bayada boat trip from Al-Haddad Scuba. A guide leads snorkeling at two reef areas, with masks, snorkels, fins, snacks, and soft drinks included. The small group has up to 10 people, and multilingual support may include English, Arabic, Russian, or Italian.
“our captain was a great guide, taking care about all of us”
You’ll cruise from Jeddah’s Red Sea Marina to Bayadah, a sandbank often called the Maldives of Jeddah. Your English and Arabic guide handles the day, with kayaking, swimming, snacks, and optional snorkeling among coral and fish. Bring a towel, sunscreen, passport, and a tolerance for open water.
“Very friendly and professional team, good spot to snorkel 😀”
Join Haddad Scuba from Al-Haddad Scuba in Jeddah for two guided Red Sea scuba sessions by boat. Tanks and weights, snacks, and soft drinks are included. Bring ID and confirm your recent logged activity, since six quiet months means snorkeling instead.
“The activity is not existent/extremely disorganized and dangerous. We arrived at the dive centre at 9:15 and nothing happened until 10:15. We then got brought at the marina where we got told the equipment will be available and we arrived and no equipment is available - no wetsuit no regulators nothing. There is also no instructor at all and you’re pretty much left on your own. Everything is very unsafe and not up to standard for a diving centre where safety should be the first priority.”
Pick a cliff, a coral lane or a reef.
