Aqaba is the only coastal city in Jordan, an otherwise landlocked country. With the red mountains of Wadi Rum in the background and the Red Sea in the foreground, the stunning Aqaba boasts a beautiful setting. This port city is laden with luxurious resorts and hotels, ensuring a restful place to return to after a long day of touring Jordan. The main activities of Aqaba are coastal-friendly, like beach exploring, diving, water sports, and more.
Aqaba’s city center, markets, and neighborhoods are becoming increasingly attractive as well. Close to Wadi Rum, Petra, and the Israeli/Egyptian borders, Aqaba is a haven for travelers.
