Destination Guide

Places in Dahab —
Where to Breathe, Float, and Wander

Dahab isn’t about landmarks you rush through. It’s about places you return to — sometimes daily — until they feel familiar.

This page is your living map of Dahab and nearby South Sinai: the sea spots, the desert silence, the walking corners, and the places people talk about quietly over tea.
