Nuweiba is located on the Sinai Peninsula of Egypt, along the Gulf of Aquaba. On one side, it is flanked by sandy beaches and on the other side, by a lofty mountainous range.
Nuweiba has a long tourist season because of the pleasant climate for most of the year. The sea breeze gives it a relief from the heat compared to some other regions in the desert.
After a brief war between Israel and the Arabic nations, Nuweiba came under the rule of Israel for a short while. Trade and commercial connections with Jordan via a ferry system led to its development.
Nuweiba is still a quiet seaside town, but has started attracting visitors because of its natural beauty. The nearby attractions in Israel and Jordan are an added advantage.
