Taba is the location of Egypt's busiest border crossing with neighbouring Eilat, Israel. Taba is a frequent vacation spot for Egyptians and tourists, especially those from Israel on their way to other destinations in Egypt or as a weekend getaway. It is the northernmost resort of Egypt's Red Sea Riviera.[2] HistoryThe Taba Crisis of 1906 started when Sultan Abdul Hamid II of the Ottoman Empire decided to build a post at Taba. The British sent an Egyptian Coast Guard steamer to re-occupy Naqb el Aqaba and Taba. When encountered by a Turkish officer who refused them permission to land, the Egyptian force landed on the nearby Pharaoh's Island instead. The British Navy sent warships into the eastern Mediterranean and threatened to seize certain islands under the Ottoman Empire. The Sultan agreed to evacuate Taba and on 13 May 1906. Both Britain and Ottoman Empire agreed to demarcate a formal border that would run approximately straight from Rafah in a south-easterly direction to a point on the Gulf of Aqaba not less than 3 miles from Aqaba.[3][4] Taba was located on the Egyptian side of the armistice 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, 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. Although most of Sinai was returned to Egypt in 1982 following the 1979 peace treaty 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 favour, and Israel returned Taba to Egypt in February 1989.[5] As part of this subsequent agreement, travellers are permitted to cross from Israel at the Eilat–Taba border crossing, and visit the "Aqaba Coast Area of Sinai", (stretching from Taba down to Sharm el Sheikh, and including Nuweiba, Saint Catherine's Monastery and Dahab), visa-free for up to 14 days, making Taba a popular tourist destination. 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 where many people come to either free dive, scuba dive or learn to dive via the many PADI courses on offer. Other recreation facilities include a new desert-style golf course. On 24 September 1995 the Taba Agreement was signed by Israel and the PLO in Taba. On October 7, 2004, the Hilton Taba was hit by a bomb that killed 34 people including Israelis.[6] Twenty-four days later, an inquiry by the Egyptian Interior Ministry into the bombings concluded that the perpetrators received no external help but were aided by Bedouins on the peninsula.[7] In February 2014, a coach taking tourists to Saint Catherine's Monastery in Sinai exploded in Taba shortly before crossing the border to Israel. At least two South Koreans were killed and 14 injured, the blast was blamed on terrorists.[8][9] Despite warnings, tourism from Israel to Taba was up in 2016 with many traveling to enjoy the northernmost Red Sea resort.[10] ClimateKöppen-Geiger climate classification system classifies its climate as hot desert (BWh),[11] as the rest of Egypt. {{Weather box|width = auto |metric first=yes |single line=yes |location=Taba |Jan record high C=27 |Feb record high C=31 |Mar record high C=34 |Apr record high C=41 |May record high C=44 |Jun record high C=44 |Jul record high C=47 |Aug record high C=46 |Sep record high C=43 |Oct record high C=39 |Nov record high C=37 |Dec record high C=31 |Jan high C=20.9 |Feb high C=22.6 |Mar high C=25.8 |Apr high C=29.9 |May high C=33.8 |Jun high C=37.2 |Jul high C=38.2 |Aug high C=38.7 |Sep high C=35.9 |Oct high C=32.4 |Nov high C=27.3 |Dec high C=22.5 |Jan mean C=15.6 |Feb mean C=17.0 |Mar mean C=19.9 |Apr mean C=23.8 |May mean C=26.5 |Jun mean C=30.4 |Jul mean C=31.8 |Aug mean C=32.2 |Sep mean C=30.1 |Oct mean C=26.6 |Nov mean C=21.8 |Dec mean C=17.2 |Jan low C=10.4 |Feb low C=11.4 |Mar low C=14.0 |Apr low C=17.7 |May low C=19.3 |Jun low C=23.7 |Jul low C=25.5 |Aug low C=25.7 |Sep low C=24.4 |Oct low C=20.9 |Nov low C=16.3 |Dec low C=11.9 |Jan record low C=3 |Feb record low C=3 |Mar record low C=8 |Apr record low C=11 |May record low C=16 |Jun record low C=21 |Jul record low C=22 |Aug record low C=23 |Sep record low C=21 |Oct record low C=16 |Nov record low C=8 |Dec record low C=5 |precipitation colour=green |Jan precipitation mm=4 |Feb precipitation mm=6 |Mar precipitation mm=5 |Apr precipitation mm=3 |May precipitation mm=1 |Jun precipitation mm=0 |Jul precipitation mm=0 |Aug precipitation mm=0 |Sep precipitation mm=0 |Oct precipitation mm=1 |Nov precipitation mm=3 |Dec precipitation mm=6 |Jan rain days=2 |Feb rain days=1 |Mar rain days=2 |Apr rain days=1 |May rain days=1 |Jun rain days=0 |Jul rain days=0 |Aug rain days=0 |Sep rain days=0 |Oct rain days=0 |Nov rain days=1 |Dec rain days=2 |Jan humidity=50 |Feb humidity=51 |Mar humidity=47 |Apr humidity=38 |May humidity=35 |Jun humidity=29 |Jul humidity=25 |Aug humidity=32 |Sep humidity=40 |Oct humidity=45 |Nov humidity=47 |Dec humidity=50 |Jand sun=8 |Febd sun=9 |Mard sun=9 |Aprd sun=10 |Mayd sun=12 |Jund sun=13 |Juld sun=13 |Augd sun=13 |Sepd sun=12 |Octd sun=10 |Novd sun=9 |Decd sun=7 |source 1= Climate-Data.org, altitude: 14m[11] |source 2 = BBC Weather for records and humidity,[12] Weather2Travel for rainy days and sunshine[13] }} Taba heights' temperatures are slightly cooler and it has slightly more rainy days.

Taba Protected AreaLocated just southwest of Taba is a 3590 km² protected area, including 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 species of mammals, 50 species of rare birds, and 24 species of reptiles.[15] TransportationSince 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 (IATA: TCP, ICAO: HETB), and now handles half a dozen charter flights a week from the UK as well as weekly charter flights from Belgium, Russia, Denmark, and The Netherlands. Many tourists enter via the Taba Border Crossing from Eilat, Israel and a marina has been built in the new Taba Heights development, some 20 km (12 mi) south of Taba, and which has frequent ferry sailings to Aqaba in Jordan, although these are restricted to tourists on organised tours.
