Governatorato di Aqaba

Aqaba Governorate is Jordan's southernmost and only coastal administrative region, situated at the northeastern tip of the Red Sea's Gulf of Aqaba. It borders Saudi Arabia, Israel, and Egypt across the water, and encompasses both the city of Aqaba and the protected wilderness of Wadi Rum. The governorate holds special economic zone status, influencing its tax-free retail environment and making it distinct from other Jordanian regions in terms of commerce and hospitality infrastructure.
