“It’s amazing how many times I have heard people saying that before they came to Dahab every holiday they had was to a different place
– until they found this golden location they now call a second home…”
There are dive sites for all ages and experience.
If even the gentle pace of Dahab starts to be too much then a trip to Ras Abu Gallum is on the cards. A mere two-hour camel ride along the coast will cheer you up! (probably) This fantastic trip can include an overnight stay and if your feeling adventurous then the diving here is out of this world.
After a great sleep under the stars and a real Bedouin breakfast, slip into your dive gear and enjoy being the only divers in the water for miles.
Or move inland from the warm ocean and take a desert safari into the mountains. An overnight stay is recommended as you will see the most incredible night skies with the bright band of the milky way and thousands of stars you can see for miles, even with no moon – just by starlight!
Simply breathtaking. And check out the psychedelic coloured canyon! Or Moses mountain. or St. Katherines or a national park.
Sharm, with all it’s excitement is just an hour away from your Dahab home.
Wreck diving including the SS Thistlegorm and trips to the south to find sharks and other larger creatures are very popular and are run from the dive centre.
BUT….
The most amazing thing about Dahab is the people. friendly hospitality has reached its peak in Dahab and the Bedouin and Egyptian locals, – as well as the international staff – will provide a warm friendly welcome and put a massive smile on your face.
The people are the real reason this place calls people back again and again…
Egypt, with its close locality for European holidaymakers and the great prices for hotels and eating out means there is only one bad thing.
