The Sinai Peninsula appears as roughly an inverted triangle between Egypt and Israel. Its greatest east-west extent is approximately the line from Suez eastward to the Israeli border, a distance of about 132 miles.
The distance from its southernmost point northward to El Arish on the Mediterranean coast is about 233 miles.
Virtually all of the peninsula, eastward from the Suez Canal, is harsh desert, extending across Israel's Negev and into Jordan and Saudi Arabia.
This is really rough country. Even along the seacoast, with water visible in all directions, there isn't a drop to drink. The surface in many places is hard, crushed stone, making for difficult walking. Nothing grows. There is no wood to burn or build with, and no water to mix cement. When the dry wind blows, the sand in the air creates static electricity that often zaps the unwary tourist out of thin air. A day spent there changes one's whole understanding of the Hebrews' exodus from Egypt.
The Sahara Desert covers about 3.6 million square miles (9.4 million square kilometers) across North Africa.
