Question

Is the Sinai peninsula in Africa or Asia

Answer 1

Its land borders are the Suez Canal to the west and the Israel–Egypt border to the north-east. The Sinai Peninsula is in Southwest Asia (the more geographically accurate term for the term Middle East) while the rest of Egypt is in North Africa. For geopolitical purposes, the Sinai is often considered part of Africa (as the rest of Egypt is).

The Sinai is mostly high mountains, including Mount Catherine, the highest mountain in Egypt. The eastern boundary of the peninsula is a geological fault zone known as the Great Rift Valley, which can be seen from the upper Jordan River valley, extending southward through the Red Sea into Africa.

The Sabah coast is settled at Taba (near the Israeli town of Eilat), where there is a hotel and casino. Moving southwards along the coast, there lie: Nuweiba, Dahab and Sharm el-Sheikh. The Sinai is also settled on the north coast near the Gaza Strip at El-Arish.
