Surfing in Jordan

Jordan offers one of the world's most unique surf experiences. The Red Sea coast around Aqaba picks up wind-generated swells, particularly during winter months when northerly winds create rideable waves along the short but scenic coastline. The conditions favor shortboarding and bodyboarding on smaller days, with occasional larger swells during storm events. Water temperatures range from 20C to 27C. Surfing in Jordan is not about world-class waves; it is about the extraordinary context. You can surf in the morning, explore the ancient city of Petra in the afternoon, and camp under the stars in Wadi Rum's desert by night. For surfers who collect unique experiences, Jordan is unforgettable.

Frequently asked on Wavesafari

Surfing in Jordan centers around key zones like Aqaba gulf coast. Jordan is virtually landlocked with a tiny coastline tucked away inside the sheltered Gulf of Aqaba. These locations offer distinct profiles ranging from raw coastal exposures to protected shelves, ensuring a unique map for shortboarders and longboarders alike.
The primary surf window peaks during Rare winter wind storms that blow down the length of the Red Sea, creating brief, knee-high wind swells. This period delivers the most reliable groundswell angles and optimal local wind transitions to clean up the breaks, as tracked across the WaveSafari dashboard.
Surfers in Jordan need to be highly aware of specific regional factors: It is not a primary surf destination; surfers generally head to neighboring open seas, but longboarders can get rare novelties. Lineups thrive on mutual respect, so observing the peak and priority rules before paddling out is vital for a sustainable surf trip.
