Description

The Gulf of Aden is an extension of the Indian Ocean. Located between Africa and Asia, it forms the natural separation between the countries of Somalia and Yemen. In that regard, piracy is a problem in these waters, especially for small sailboats and yachts. Many international sources now warn all small craft to avoid this gulf.
