Arabian peninsula
 
I need to make my way from India to somewhere in Africa, probably via boat, and wonder if I should aim for some country in the Arabian peninsula, or shoot straight down to east Africa somewhere.

Thoughts?

Not a good time to visit the Arabian Peninsular. Yemen is in a bad state, and I am not sure if you'd be able to drive across. If you can get a transit visa for Saudi, then you could head to the ferry in Jeddah... but that is a big 'if'. Have a search for 'saudi transit visa' and see what the latest info is.

B) india - ferry to UAE - saudi arabia - jordan - ferry to egypt.
C) india - ferry to UAE - oman - saudi arabia - ferry to egypt.
