Red Sea

The Red Sea is a seawater inlet located between northeastern Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. It connects to the Mediterranean Sea through the Suez Canal to the north and the Gulf of Aden to the south. Known for its rich marine biodiversity, the Red Sea is a popular destination for divers and tourists. It has significant historical and economic importance, particularly for trade routes. The sea is also notable for its unique geological features, such as coral reefs and deep rift valleys. Its name is thought to derive from the occasional blooms of red algae found in the water.
