South Beach

South Beach is located in Jordan in the coastal city of Aqaba on the Red Sea coast. The city was built in a picturesque area, surrounded by mountains. Long and wide sandy beaches, where sand is mixed with shells and shingle. On the coast, it is possible to take shelter from the sun on loungers in the shade of tall palm trees. The entry into the sea is sloping and safe, but rocks and sea urchins can be found.

Beach description

Waves in this part of the Red Sea are rare. The water is clear with a turquoise hue near the coast and a bright blue in the place of increasing depth, in the sunshine the sea plays with gold and silver glare. The resort is popular with both Jordanians and tourists. In high season, housing in Aqaba is booked at 90% a few months before the start of the vacation. On the beach there is a place for children, where they can swim and play.

A popular place in Aqaba is the hamam bath, built in 306.

The territory of the beach and its coastal waters is protected by the authorities of Jordan, therefore, the perfect cleanliness is maintained on the territory.
