Dahab is a tranquil place in South Sinai, Egypt, and a perfect location to find relaxation as well as plenty of adventures. It is situated just a one hour drive from Sharm el Sheikh airport.
Dahab is a Bedouin town that over the past years slowly developed from a chilled backpackers hang-out into a chilled tourist destination with a mix of Bedouins, Egyptians and foreigners living in a community and calling Dahab their home. In contrast to other Red Sea Resorts like Sharm el Sheikh or Hurghada, Dahab still retains its laid back charm. This is only one of the many reasons why so many people fall in love with this unique place and keep on coming back.
Diving in Dahab is awesome, but there are also many other activities that are great to combine with diving, to enjoy on a day out of the water, or if you are a non-diver.
