The Suez Canal is approximately 120 miles (193 kilometers) long and connects the Mediterranean Sea to the Red Sea, facilitating maritime trade. It has a width that varies, with some sections measuring around 300 meters (980 feet) and a depth of about 24 meters (79 feet) at its deepest point. The canal features a series of navigation channels and is equipped with pilot stations to assist vessels in transit. Additionally, it includes several artificial lakes, such as the Great Bitter Lake, which serve as waiting areas for ships.
