    • Theres an enormous flag of Jordan at the waters edge - near the Aqaba museum - and where these guys were jumping into the clear blue water and swimming out and back to shore again. Looks like this is the place to get a glass bottom boat ride - or this was just a good spot for the guys to park up and relax in their boats.

    But we had great views down into the water (looked like quite a bit of rubbish on the bottom though!) and across to Eilat, which is Israel, and right around that area of the Red Sea (not the Dead Sea - here we are at the Red Sea!! - but couldnt see anything red about it from there!)

     The waters look very clear -- I would jump in and swim! Norman :)    		HORSCHECK Wed Feb 25, 2009 19:26 UTC
     Another fabulous little page about your time in Jordan. Interesting warning tip about the transportation during the Shabbath time.

     Jordan maybe will be in the plan of the next trip... thanks.    		barryg23 Sun Dec 14, 2008 10:30 UTC
     That water looks great for snorkelling or diving. Hoping to include Aqaba too after Wadi Rum or Petra.
