Governorate on Jordan's Red Sea (Gulf of Aqaba) coast is shaped by wind-generated swells hitting the limited reef shoreline, producing point breaks and beach breaks that work across a variety of conditions. Conditions peak November through March, with water at 21-27C and winds that often cooperate to groom the wave faces. The Middle Eastern energy of the area, combined with Jordanian hospitality, makes Governorate a compelling stop on any surf journey through Jordan. And the wave count per surfer remains generous. Beyond the waves, visitors enjoy Jordanian hospitality and the authentic atmosphere of Petra and Wadi Rum heritage. The coastline around Governorate is scenic and inviting, with the kind of raw natural beauty that reminds you why surf travel is about more than just the waves. Whether you are chasing a specific swell or exploring Jordan's coast with an open schedule, Governorate is a destination that delivers on every front.
