The Basic Outline
Strait of Gibraltar• On the northern side of
the Strait is Spain and Gibraltar, while on the southern side is Morocco and Ceuta, a Spanish exclave in North Africa. Its boundaries were known in antiquity as the Pillars of Hercules. There are several small islands, such as the disputed Isla Perejil, that are claimed by both Spain and Morocco.

The Basic Outline
Strait of Dover• The Strait of Dover or Dover
Strait is the strait at the narrowest part of the English Channel. Most maritime traffic between the Atlantic Ocean and the North and Baltic Seas passes through the Strait of Dover, rather than take the longer and more dangerous route around the north of Scotland. The Strait is one of the busiest international seaways in the world, regularly used by over 400 commercial vessels daily.

The Basic Outline
Sicilian Channel• The Strait of Sicily (Sicilian
Channel) is the strait between Sicily and Tunisia. It is about 100 miles (160 km) wide and divides the Tyrrhenian Sea and the western Mediterranean Sea from the eastern Mediterranean. Deep currents in the strait flow from east to west, and the current nearer the surface travels in the opposite direction. The unusual water flow is of interest to oceanographers.

The Basic Outline
Dardanelles & Bosporus• The Dardanelles is a narrow
strait in northwestern Turkey connecting the Aegean Sea to the Sea of Marmara. Like the Bosporus, it separates Europe (in this case the Gallipoli peninsula) and the mainland of Asia. The strait is an International waterway, and together with the Bosporus, Dardanelles connects the Black Sea to the Mediterranean Sea.

Suez Canal• The Suez Canal is a large
artificial maritime canal in Egypt west of the Sinai Peninsula. It is 163 km (101 miles) long and 300 m (984 ft) wide at its narrowest point, and runs between Port Said on the Mediterranean Sea, and Suez on the Red Sea. The canal allows two-way north-to-south water transportation, most importantly between Europe and Asia without circumnavigation of Africa.

The Basic Outline
Gulf of Aqaba• The Gulf of Aqaba is one of two
gulfs created by the Sinai Peninsula's bifurcation of the northern Red Sea. The Gulf of Aqaba lies to its east. The Gulf of Aqaba measures 24 km at its widest point and stretches some 160 km north from the Straits of Tiran to a point where the border of Israel meets the borders of Egypt and Jordan. At this northern end of the Gulf are three important cities: Taba in Egypt, Eilat in Israel, and Aqaba in Jordan. All three cities serve both as strategically important commercial ports

Strait of Hormuz• The Strait of Hormuz is a
narrow, strategically important stretch of ocean between the Gulf of Oman in the southeast and the Persian Gulf in the southwest. On the north coast is Iran and on the south coast is the United Arab Emirates and Musandam, an exclave of Oman. It is the only sea passage to the open ocean for petroleum exporting Persian Gulf States. Some 20 percent of the world's oil supply passes through the strait, making it an important strategic military location in the Middle East.
