Updated on 14 May 2008.

If you are in Sinai Egypt, you can choose to take the ferry to Aqaba from the port of Nuweiba.

The daily service is operated by the AB Maritime, Jordan.

Make sure you arrive to the port at least 2-3 hours prior to the departure, especially if you haven't purchased your ticket beforehand.
