About

In Aqaba, Jordan, solo travelers can immerse themselves in a blend of cultural and natural wonders. At the southern tip of the Red Sea, the city offers access to remarkable sites such as the ancient ruins of Ayla, where one can explore remnants of a once-thriving port city, or head to the Aqaba Fort, a 16th-century structure that provides insight into the region’s history. The coral reefs off the coast are a draw for those looking to snorkel or dive alone, where vibrant marine life can be discovered just a short boat ride away from the beach.
