Aqaba, the largest city on the Gulf of Aqaba, boasts a rich history dating back to 1500 BC when the Edomites built the first port of Elath. Over the centuries, it has flourished under the rule of various empires such as the Romans, Ummayads, Abbasids, and Fatimids. Now, Aqaba has transformed into a bustling, low-tax duty-free city, thanks to the establishment of the Aqaba Special Economic Zone Authority.

Located at the crossroads of Asia and Africa, Aqaba's strategic position has made it an essential seaport in Jordan's economic development, with industries focusing on trade, tourism, and the port sector. Its close proximity to Eilat in Israel, as well as bordering Egypt and Saudi Arabia, makes Aqaba a unique destination for travellers interested in exploring the region.

When to visit Aqaba

The ideal time to visit Aqaba is during the pleasant spring months of March to May, when temperatures are warm with comfortable humidity levels and clear sunlight. Summer can be scorching but attracts peak tourist season. Also, consider paying a visit between October and November, when the cooler weather and lush landscapes offer scenery that wows.

For the best snorkelling and diving experiences in the Red Sea, plan your visit between September and November. No matter when you choose to travel to Aqaba, the city's stunning beauty and rich history guarantee a memorable experience for all.
