About Dahab
Dahab is a laid-back Red Sea town on the east coast of the Sinai, set between warm turquoise water and the dry mountains of the peninsula.
Dahab stretches along the Gulf of Aqaba on the east coast of the Sinai Peninsula, a former Bedouin fishing village with a seafront promenade of cafés and dive shops. The coral reefs drop away close to shore, and the water is warm and clear. The mountains of Sinai rise behind the town, while the mountains of Saudi Arabia are visible across the gulf on a clear day.
