Carved wooden balconies of a coral-stone house in Old Yanbu

Yanbu

An old port town with reefs offshore, a labyrinthine souk inland, and the desert never far behind. Quiet now, but not for long.

Why Yanbu

A coast that hasn’t been “discovered” yet.

Yanbu has been a Red Sea port for two thousand years. Pilgrims, traders, and now divers, though the rhythm of the old town has not changed much. We have spent years working with families here who have been guiding visitors for generations.

A trip with us in Yanbu means dawn dives on untouched reefs, lunches in courtyards you would not find on a map, and evenings on the corniche watching the dhows come in.
