The Egyptian resort of Taba is a modern developing tourist center that attracts yachtsmen with an abundance of luxury hotels, enchanting landscapes and a magnificent underwater world in terms of wealth and beauty (visibility under water sometimes exceeds 30 m).

Therefore, you can safely rent a yacht in Egypt and go on an introductory excursion to neighboring Jordan or Israel.
The average air temperature in the region does not drop below 22-23 degrees Celsius, thanks to which the swimming season is open all year round, in summer the sea water temperature reaches 24-26 degrees.

To relax after a long sea voyage, you should plunge into the atmosphere of the Crusader period; for this purpose, it is worth visiting the ancient 12th century fortress Salah El Din. Recently, there have been bright sound and light shows, during which the fortress is illuminated with lights and looks mesmerizing against the backdrop of the calm waters of the bay. In the evening, you can sail on a yacht to a neighboring island, where you can enjoy the garland of evening lights of Jordan and Israeli Eilat on the opposite side of the bay.
The resort is ideal for a romantic pastime; all conditions for a fruitful family vacation are also created here. The city stretches for many kilometers along the coast of the Red Sea and hotels are often significantly distant from each other, which should also be taken into account when planning a vacation in Taba.
Located at the crossroads of three countries, the small resort town of Taba unobtrusively performs the function of a kind of "border guard" in Egypt. In the city you will not see defensive structures and ramparts blocking the way, but instead you will see magnificent landscapes of nature. Having visited these places, it will be difficult for you to take your eyes off the lilac fog of the mountain ranges, the azure of the sea and the charm of the divine tents.

In Petra, the main attraction is the Amphitheater, which in time immemorial can accommodate up to 3000 spectators.
Currently, a series of luxury hotels with a high level of service have been built in the resort city to ensure comfortable rest and accommodation for tourists. Fenced with green spaces, beaches lure vacationers, and inimitable in their beauty underwater coral polyps make divers quite anxious - here they are one of the most beautiful on the planet. In terms of its splendor, Taba's coral reefs are on a par with the underwater gardens in Dahab and Sharm el-Sheikh.
The main "highlight" of Taba is the epochal Pharaonic Island. This island, amazing in its natural beauty, once served as a port for the Phoenicians, still keeps the mystery of the existence of the former ruler of Egypt - the talented commander Salah El Din. You can learn a lot of interesting things about that period by visiting the museum complex. The museum is open daily from 9 am to 5 pm. And you can watch the underwater life by ordering a yacht excursion for $ 50.
