Land between the Gulfs of Aqaba and Suez (5)

I believe the answer is:

sinai

(Other definitions for sinai that I've seen before include "Peninsula, mostly desert, at north end of Red Sea" , "Part of 10 [EGYPT]" , "place to receive instructions about behaviour" , "11 Across peninsula" , "Mountainous Egyptian peninsula" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
