Site Description Cedar Pride

“Cedar Pride” is a legendary dive site located in the Gulf of Aqaba, Jordan, known for its fascinating history and diverse marine life. Here is a brief promotional description of the site: “Cedar Pride” is a must-visit dive site for any diving enthusiast or history buff. This incredible site is home to the Cedar Pride wreck, a Lebanese cargo ship that sank in 1985 and has since become a haven for marine life. The wreck is now fully encrusted with coral and sponges, creating a unique and beautiful underwater landscape that divers can explore. But the Cedar Pride wreck is not the only attraction at this site. The area is also home to a variety of vibrant coral reefs, teeming with colorful fish and other marine creatures. Divers can spot schools of barracuda, tuna, and snapper, as well as a variety of rays, eels, and even the occasional shark. A side from the stunning marine life, Cedar Pride also has a rich history. The ship was originally built in 1961 and served as a cargo vessel before it was seized during the Lebanese Civil War. It was eventually sold to a Jordanian businessman and was en route to Aqaba when it sank. The reasons for its sinking are still a mystery, but its final resting place at Cedar Pride has since become a popular destination for divers from around the world. Cedar Pride is suitable for divers of all levels, from beginners to experienced divers. The site is easily accessible from Aqaba, and there are plenty of diving operators and facilities in the area that offer guided dives to Cedar Pride. With its fascinating history and incredible marine life, Cedar Pride is a truly unique dive site that should not be missed.
