In modern times, some have suggested the Sea of Reeds, a small, very shallow (less than 1 metre deep) lake system. However, this is only an attempt to find a more plausible body of water, about which debate could be had regarding the ability of a strong wind to temporarily separate the water. The problem with this hypothesis is, if God can perform a miracle of parting the water, why can he only part the waters of a marsh, but not those of a deep gulf?
In fact, there probably was no sea, because there is no evidence that the Exodus ever took place. The respected Israeli archaeologist, Israel Finkelstein says that over 90 per cent of scholars believe that the Exodus from Egypt never happened.

What pharaoh was in charge when the Israelites left Egypt?
The pharaoh at the time was Rameses.
What was Pharaoh's answer to Moses and Aaron?
He answered them more than once (Exodus ch.5 to 11), but the gist of all the answers was that he refused to free the Israelites. (Sometimes he spoke of his own volition, not as an answer, and did proclaim the Israelites' emancipation, but in each case [except ch.12] he soon retracted.)
What was involved in the escape of the Hebrews from Egypt?
The Israelites did not escape. They left Egypt in an orderly fashion, with their livestock, after receiving Pharaoh's permission to do so (Exodus ch.12).
Is the same pharaoh when Moses left as before he left?
Yes it is the very same pharaoh.
Did the Israelites cross the Nile river to enter the promised land?
If they followed Moses, then yes they did.
Which pharaoh was asked to release the Hebrews?
There is no indication of his name in the Bible, but scholars call him Pharoah 128, to presume it was Ramses or anyone else is best left to those who do not answer questions on here. And incidentally, no one, Pharaoh or otherwise, drove Moses out of Egypt. Moses went to Pharaoh and demanded he let Moses and his people go (they were slaves in Egypt, not people Pharaoh would be inclined to drive away since they were his cheap labor force). When Pharaoh would not let Moses and the Israelites go, 10 plagues descended upon Egypt one at a time until finally Pharaoh let Moses and his people leave. Pharaoh quickly changed his mind and chased Moses (to either capture them all or kill them all) to the Red Sea where Moses and his people safely crossed the sea and Pharaoh's men/army were all swallowed up by the sea.
