Around the world
Suez Canal,the narrow waterway linking the Mediterranean sea and the Red sea,it is located between two continents -Asia & Africa.However,flowing through Egypt all the way.
Stretching over a length of 193 kilometers,it’s one of the vital shipping lanes of the world.It contributes to transportation of approximately 15% of global goods.
It takes around 15 hours to transit through the canal. Traversing the canal through the aqua water sandwiched between sandy banks is a unique experience.Truly enthralling and refreshing for sea-weary mariners.
