Nuweiba can be divided
into three main sections and runs for some ways
along the beach. The three areas consist of the
port of Noweiba which has become fairly busy these
days, Noweiba City which has a bazaar and tourist
shops, and Tarabin which is the real party area.
All along the Sinai cost you will find good scuba
diving, and Noweiba is no exception. This town
lies either side of the Wadi Watir delta about 57
miles north of Sharm el-Sheikh, and consists of
the Muzeina Bedouin fishing village to the south
and the Tarabiin Bedouin and tourist villages to
the north.
They are separated by an 18th century
Turkish citadel. Besides the diving, you will also
find camel and jeep adventurers. The Colored
Canyon is nearby, and a little beyond is the oasis
of Ain el-Furtaga.
Be sure to take the road
between Noweiba and Taba if you like beautiful
scenery. Noweiba also has a daily ferry service to
the Jordanian port of Aqaba.
