The best birdwatching in Jordan falls in March–May and August–November, when migration peaks; winter is superb for waterbirds, and summer holds breeding species. Key sites include Azraq, Dana, Aqaba Bird Observatory, Wadi Rum, the Dead Sea and King Talal Dam.
Bring binoculars, a field guide, sun protection and water, stay on paths, and keep noise down near nests. Dawn gives the best activity. Travellers who hire car & driver in Jordan move freely between remote sites, and full package tours to Jordan include birding destinations and local guides.
