Cedar Pride is the only Jordan wreck. The vessel is bouyed 150m from shore off King Abullah Beach.
There is a permanent mooring on her stern for boat diving. She can also be dived from the shore 130m away, there is now a buoyed channel for divers.
There is a car park at the site a, shaded kitting up area for divers, bathrooms and a snack bar. There is a 50m walk to the sea, care must be taken entering and exiting by shore to avoid injury to divers and corals.
The wreck of the Cedar Pride was scuttled for divers on November 16th 1985. She lies on her port side with the bow to the North. The marine life is good and photo possibilities endless. Best area is the main mast at about 12m.
The bottom of the stern is at 16m and the bow at 21m. There is a swim though under the wreck at 26m. Penetration is possible with the correct procedures.
