once a resting town for traders using the caravan route to the Fort
of Aqaba in the northern-most edge of the Gulf of Aqaba. For
thousands of years, the Sinai Peninsula has attracted pilgrims from
around the world and in the last few decades has become a very
popular tourist destination due to its weather and great diving
sites.

Moses, the Colored Canyon, Cairo, Petra the Red Rose City in Jordan,
Jerusalem, the protected areas of Nabq and Ras Abu Galum, the
Pharaoh Island and beautiful diving sites.
