    		Israel, Jordan, Saudi Arabia and Egypt are all immediately visible from the shores of the Gulf of Elat. Egypt does not immediately border Jordan but it's just a 30-foot swim across Israeli waters.

    		The meeting of Namibia and Zimbabwe is dubious and is still debated by geographers. If they do meet, it occurs in the middle of a river and is the world's only true quadripoint.
