Overview

Taba Heights is a purpose-built resort town on Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, nestled between mountains and the Red Sea with five large hotels, a professional golf course, and a full-service diving and water sports center. The location offers a unique geographical novelty: from the beach you can see Israel to the left and Jordan and Saudi Arabia across the Gulf of Aqaba.
