紅海, or the Red Sea, is a seawater inlet of the Indian Ocean located between Africa and Asia. It is bordered by several countries, including Egypt, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen. The sea is known for its rich marine biodiversity and vibrant coral reefs, making it a popular destination for diving and snorkeling. The Red Sea is approximately 2,300 kilometers long and varies in width, with its narrowest point at the Bab el Mandeb strait. It plays a significant role in international trade, as it connects the Mediterranean Sea to the Indian Ocean through the Suez Canal.
