Greetings:
Previous posts have indicated the historical importance of various geographical sites which may, or may not, be accessible to you (Lang) as a "tourist".
Don't forget that Aqaba was the site of TE Lawrence's (Lawrence of Arabia) charge from the landward side which successfully captured the town and the Turkish guns, which faced the sea.
Even though that event was in WW I, there are enough ghosts lurking about to give you the shivers, and to put history in perspective.
That was my impression in 1985.
