Aqaba is a coastal city of Jordan on the Red Sea coast with a rich history and a unique atmosphere, where sea walks, coral reefs and desert landscapes are combined. The city acts as a gateway to the famous natural territories of the region and retains the role of an important port around which a live tourist infrastructure and established routes for travelers have been formed.
Among the man-made attractions are the Aqaba Marine Park, created in 1997 to protect the biodiversity of the coast, and the historic Aqaba Castle, a Mamluk fort built to defend the port. The island of Pharaoh attracts attention for its historical role and fortifications, and the coastal areas and berths of the city complement the image of walking routes and open-air museums. All of these sites highlight the historical and cultural significance of Aqaba as a maritime hub and intersection point of different eras.
The natural attractions around Aqaba are no less impressive: the Wadi Rum Desert, known as the Moon Valley and located about 60 km from the city, conquers with mountainous landscapes, rock arches and filming locations. Wadi Ram is adjacent to such natural monuments as the Burda Natural Bridge and the famous Seven Pillars Rocks, and along the coast there are magnificent diving places - First Bay, First North Bay, New Canyon Reef, King Abdullah Reef and popular Japanese gardens with rich coral life. Fans of the underwater world will appreciate the bright reefs and coral islands off the coast of Aqaba.
Our site presents all these attractions on an interactive map: you can quickly find each point, read a brief description, see the distances and lay the optimal route around the city and surroundings. The map helps visually plan the day, select a sequence of objects for inspection and combine sea and desert excursions in one route.
You can explore Aqaba on your own, walking along the embankment, diving with a mask near the reefs or going on a jeep safari in Wadi Ram, or with local guides. Booking a tour with professionals will open access to hidden locations, historical stories and safe routes for diving and walking in the desert - guides will help make the trip rich and convenient.
Come to Aqaba to feel the contrast of sea and desert, see the coral reefs and majestic cliffs of Wadi Ram. Discover the sights, make routes and arrange unforgettable trips - this city will give vivid impressions and new discoveries.
