The Saudi Arabia diving tourism market size is expected to reach USD 77.3 million in 2030 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 12.5% from 2025 to 2030. There is a growing emphasis on sustainable diving tourism practices in Saudi Arabia. Consumers are increasingly conscious of the environmental impact of their activities and seek diving operators and destinations that prioritize conservation efforts, promote responsible diving practices, and support marine ecosystem protection.
The Saudi Arabian government's Red Sea Global (RSG) launched two new brands in February 2023 to boost regenerative tourism. The RSG project is offering different hotel experiences, several water sports, and the exploration of the Red Sea's incredible submarine world through its brands WAMA and Galaxea. It has collaborated with the Saudi Water Sports & Diving Federation and PADI International to make sure all diving facilities are developed on the norms for sustainable tourism and serve as a model for global diving growth.
As divers in Saudi Arabia seek out novel experiences, technological improvements, and environmentally friendly practices, consumer adoption trends in diving tourism are constantly changing. Online courses such as PADI eLearning courses have revolutionized diver training and certification. Divers can complete the theoretical portions of diving courses online at their own pace and convenience. Also, the online tour booking system broadens the range of options, allowing the divers to tailor their experiences to as per preferences-whether they seek vibrant coral reefs, unique marine life encounters, or specific underwater environments like caves or wrecks.
Governments, authoritative bodies, and tourism boards in many parts of the world are promoting wreck diving as a major tourist attraction. This has led to the development of new dive sites and infrastructure, making them more accessible and attractive to a larger audience. Some notable wreck diving sites in Saudi Arabia include: Al Fahal Shipwreck: Located near Jeddah, the Al Fahal is one of the most popular wreck diving sites in Saudi Arabia. The wreck lies at a depth of around 30 meters (98 feet) and has become an artificial reef, attracting a variety of marine life.
