Bird watching in Aqaba
Jordan serves as a natural bridge for birds migrating between their breeding areas in Europe and Asia, and their winter quarters in Africa.
There is a spectacular spring migration of raptors through Jordan, including Buzzard, Honey Buzzard, Steppe Eagle and Levant Sparrow Hawk. In autumn, the southward migration for thousands of Steppe Eagles begins.
The Aqaba Birds Observatory (ABO) attracts large numbers of migratory birds, such as the Levant Sparrow Hawk during spring time. The region is considered as a bottleneck for migratory birds of all kinds, such as Waders, Raptors and Passerines.
Experience the amazing bird migration with this unique package.
Package price: JD 7++/person.
