Besides that, aqaba is sold, turist wise, as the perfect diving place in the red sea.
Well....we were extremly disappointed. The city itself is pretty basic and unworth any visit; The diving/snorkeling is quite pleasent but for me same price you can get much more in Sinai; it even doesn't have the party atmosphere of the neighbor Eljat..summing up: if your aim its to dive continue to Sinai, to party go to Eljat to sleep go to Egypt.
Curiosly we had our first Mcdonald's meal in 1 month..
Transport tip:
DON'T EVER TAKE THE FERRY TO NUWEIBA!!!Besides being too expensive ($60) its also too slow and uncomfortable - we had to wait for 6 hours to get in..there was people sleeping everywhere..total chaos..who would have guessed??Still i had some interesting conversation about the other side of the story - to be posted soon!
You are much better off taking the way across the border..
