Pharaoh Island is a small island located north of the Gulf of Aqaba on the eastern coast of the Sinai Peninsula. It was called by this name because it was occupied for the first time during the reign of Ramses III, and it was also called "Coral Island", as it is surrounded by picturesque coral reefs from all directions, and is very popular among Divers, as the island consists of two large rocks that rise about twenty meters above sea level, and its beaches are characterized by charming turquoise waters.
