Jordan's Red Sea

Holidays in Aqaba & Tala Bay

Jordan's Red Sea coast is no less dramatic than Egypt's, and in many areas is virtually untouched, offering beaches and reefs in pristine condition. The Aqaba region also makes the ideal base for exploring Jordan's many fascinating sights, including Petra and Wadi Rum.

We offer direct flights into Aqaba during the winter season; during summer months Aqaba is accessible via Amman.

Aqaba also makes a great starting or finishing point for multi-centre holidays, and is the starting point of our Highlights of Jordan Tour.

Holidays in Aqaba

Standing on the shores of the Red Sea, Aqaba is a busy town and Jordan's only port as well as a seaside resort, and truly has something for everyone - glorious weather, a host of water sports and a traditional atmosphere, with historical sites and desert tracks within easy reach.

Aqaba makes a great base for visiting some of the finest sites in the Middle East, including the 'lost city' of Petra, just a short distance away, and the stunning desert landscapes of Wadi Rum, where you can explore the mysteries of the desert.

Alternatively, simply enjoy a beach resort not yet spoilt by modern commercialised tourism.

Holidays in Tala Bay

The exciting new Tala Bay resort is developing into one of the Red Sea's most appealing resorts, with a marina, several quality hotels (three currently open) and plans for an 18 hole golf course with a country club.

At present, holidays in Tala Bay are ideal for relaxing, as not all facilities are open as yet.
