Taba - Sinai

Taba
It is a small town in the eastern Sinai Peninsula , near the northern tip of the Gulf of Aqaba. Taba is the location of Egypt's busiest border crossing with Israel. Taba is a frequent vacation spot for Egyptians and tourists, especially those from Israel on their way to other destinations in Egypt.
It is the northernmost resort of Egypt's Red Sea Riviera. Taba was located on the Egyptian side of the armistic line agreed to in 1949. During the Suez Crisis in 1956 it was briefly occupied but returned to Egypt when Israel withdrew in 1957. Israel reoccupied the sinai Peninsula after the Six - Day War in 1967, and subsequently a 400-room hotel was built in Taba. Following the 1973 Yom - Kippur War, when Egypt and Israel were negotiating the exact position of the border in preparation for the 1979 Peace Treaty .
Israel claimed that Taba had been on the Ottoman side of a border agreed between the Ottomans and British Egypt in 1906 and had, therefore, been in error in its two previous agreements.
Taba was the last portion to be returned. After a long dispute, the issue was submitted to an international commission composed of one Israeli, one Egyptian, and three outsiders. In 1988, the commission ruled in Egypt's favor, and Israel returned Taba to Egypt in 1989 .
The resort community of Taba Heights is located some 20 km (12 mi) south of Taba. It features several large hotels, including The Hyatt Regency, Marriott, Sofitel and Intercontinental .  It is also a significant diving area.
This ((protected area)) includes geological formations such as caves, a string of valleys, and mountainous passages. There are also some natural springs in the area.
The area has 25 kinds of mammals, 50 kinds of rare birds, and 24 kinds of reptiles
Since Taba existed only as a small Bedouin village, there was never any real transportation infrastructure. More recently, Al Nakb Airport, located on the Sinai plateau some 35 km (22 mi) from Taba, was upgraded and renamed Taba International Airport.

is a coastal town in the eastern part of the Sinai Peninsula - Egypt . Located on the coast of the Gulf of Aqaba
and is located some 150 km north of Sharm El-Sheikh , 465 km southeast from Cairo , 70 km south of the Israel - Egypt border separating Taba and Eilat. Nuweiba Port was built in 1985 on the Gulf of Aqaba, and serves as a ferry port as well, which allows for easy travel between  Jordan and Egypt. 
Also it has been an important stopping place for Moslem Pilgrims en route to Mecca.

Historically, the area was inhabited by two different Bedouin tribes:
The Tarabin to the north  & the Maizena , some 8 km to the south.
Nuweiba castle (or Newibah castle), built on top of the remains of a still older castle in 1893, has been proposed as a Unesco World Heritage.

Dahab City - Sinai

Dahab
( means Gold in Arabic) 
 is a small town situated on the southeast coast of the Sinai Peninsula in Egypt. Formerly a Bedouin fishing village. located approximately 80 km (50 mi) northeast of Sharm El Sheikh. Dahab is considered to be one of the most treasured diving destinations in sinai. 
Following The Six Day War, the town was occupied by Israel and was known in Hebrew as Di-Zahav, named after a place mentioned in the Bible , as one of the stations for the Israelites during the Exodus from Egypt. The Sinai Peninsula was restored to Egyptian rule in the Israel - Egypt Peace Treaty in 1982 .
The arrival of international hotel chains and the establishment of other ancillary facilities has since made the town a popular destination with tourists. Dahab is served by Sharm El - Sheikh International Airport.
Dahab can be divided into three major parts:
Masbat, which includes the bedouin village Asalah, is in the north. 
South of Masbat is Mashraba, which is more touristic and has considerably more hotels.
In the southwest is Medina which includes the Laguna area, famous for its excellent shallow-water windsurfing.
Also Asalah is quite developed. The area is full of camps and hostels since most people who have visited Dahab in the past were backpackers interested in diving and snorkeling in the Red Sea.
Dahab enjoys large numbers of tourists. It is world-renowned for its Windsurfing.
Scuba Diving, Free Diving and Snorkelling are popular activities with many reefs adjacent to waterfront hotels.
Land based activities include Camel , Horse , jeep and Quad bike trips. Mount Sinai is a 2 hours drive with St. Catherine Monastery being a popular tourist destination. Historically, most visitors to Dahab have been backpackers travelling independently and staying in hostels in the Masbet area. In recent years, development of hotels in the Medina area has facilitated the arrival of a wider range of tourists, many of whom visit Dahab specifically to partake in the windsurfing, diving and other activities.

Blue Hole - Red Sea

Blue Hole (Red Sea)
Blue Hole is a popular diving location on east Sinai
a few kilometres north of Dahab - Egypt on the coast of The Red Sea
The Blue Hole is a submarine( Sink Hole) a kind of a cave around 130 m deep. 
There is a shallow opening around 6 m deep, known as 'the saddle opening out to the sea, 
and a 26 m long tunnel, known as the arch, the top of which lies at a depth of 56 m. 
The hole itself and the surrounding area has an abundance of coral and reef fish.
opening out to the sea, and a 26 m long tunnel, known as the arch, the top of which lies at a depth of 56 m. The hole itself and the surrounding area has an abundance of coral and reef fish.
The Blue Hole is notorious for the number of diving fatalities which have occurred there, earning it the sobriquet "World's Most Dangerous Dive Site" and the nickname "Diver's Cemetery".
Accidents are frequently caused when divers attempt to find the tunnel through the reef (known as "The Arch") connecting the Blue Hole and open water at about 52 m depth
this is beyond the PADI maximum advanced recreational diving limit of 40 metres and the effect of nitrogen narcosis is significant at this depth
Divers who miss the tunnel sometimes continue descending, hoping to find the tunnel farther down and become increasingly narced.
The "Arch"is reportedly extremely deceptive in several ways:

 It is difficult to detect because of the odd angle between the arch, open water, and the hole itself.
 Because of the dim lighting and the fact that most light enters from outside, it appears shorter than it really is. Divers report that the Arch appears less than 10 m long but measurements have shown it is 26 m from one end to the other.
 There is frequently a current flowing inward through the arch towards the Blue Hole, increasing the time it takes to swim through.

The arch continues downward to the seabed which is beyond view and there is therefore no "reference" from below.
