Encircled by rugged purple mountains, Aqaba is known for its coral reefs. If you are a diver, you should come here. There are many diving centers where you can take lessons, hire gear, and dive alongside qualified divers.
Also, the Desert Highway to Amman begins here. If you travel on it you can see lots of burned out trucks.
Autumn, winter and spring offer mild summer weather. However, summers are hot.
Tourism in Aqaba is just beginning. You will get a true flavor of Arabic culture. Arabic music can be heard on every street corner. |
