Saudi Arabia
The Saudi coast was closed to visitors for decades, and only opened in 2019 — so this is the Red Sea almost no one has dived. Think the same warm water and healthy coral as the classic Red Sea, but remote, uncrowded, and full of discovery. A liveaboard is the only way to reach its best reefs.
