4. A Beach Experience in Aqaba

Valentine’s Day can be more fun when couples spend it by the sea and under clear, sunny skies. Jordan’s coastal city of Aqaba is not only filled with an array of water activities, including snorkeling, jet skiing, and scuba diving that loved ones can enjoy together, but it also offers many romantic experiences. Couples can plan to spend a relaxing day by the pool and beach at one of Aqaba’s luxurious resorts, including the Hyatt Regency Aqaba Ayla, or reserve a private sunset boat ride on the Red Sea and enjoy an intimate dinner on the sea.
