...waters with oil tankers through these crystal waters. Aqaba's oil terminal spreads south of the city and at night its lights create a carnival show that can be seen half the length of the Gulf. The port area was given to Jordan by Saudi Arabia in an exchange for land, which soon yielded a fortune in oil for its new owners. But as the Jordanians say "oil will one day run out. The sea will always be there"
Places to visit
No mater which country you are based in, travel to sites in the others are relatively easy and where necessary all the relevant paper work can be sorted out via your tour operator or a hotel manager. If the coast is a joy to behold, then the interior can just as easily match it for wonders and beautiful experiences.
Egypt.
From the Egyptian coast there are a number of sites that should be on your list. In the south...

Advantages: a quiet, stylish and peaceful hotel Disadvantages: a bit to quiet at night
...year, new hotels are appearing at a rapid rate of knots, and one of the most recent is the Three Corners in Taba Heights.
Taba is the closest Egyptian town to the Israeli border, almost within shouting distance of Elat, with the Jordanian port of Aqaba visible beyond that. About half an hour south of Taba is the resort of Taba Heights nestling snugly between the red mountains and the azure waters of the Sinai coast. The resort is completely tourist orientated, that is to say that there is no local settlement in the immediate vicinity except for the dwellings of those employed at the resort.

Advantages: GREAT LOCATION AT A GREAT PRICE FOR AN AI Disadvantages: OUT OF THE WAY

Its 1/2 way between Taba/Sharm on the Aqaba cost. Overlooking a private beach on the red sea. The hotel is 4* AI with recently refurbished rooms. With the Sinai mountains behind you, and looking at the mountains of Saudi across the red sea, its a wonderful & beautiful location to wake up in with wonderful sunrises & sunsets.
The staff are all wonderful/friendly and work VERY HARD. The hotel is very clean and the food is excellent. You can actually eat from 6am till 10pm every day!! It has its own outdoor Italian restaurant; an al a carte restaurant, the main restaurant and also a coffee bar. With 2 pools and a close location (on...
