Dahab
Dahab resort is – and this applies especially to Western Europe – a favorite for its relaxed atmosphere pervasive, variable for tourist facilities – you can dive with morning and afternoon to go on climbing for a relatively accurate knowledge of the old Bedouin life of local residents. Located on the Sinai Peninsula, about 80km from the resort of Sharm El Sheikh, the airport used by inbound visitors.
Dahab as gold or sand?
One possible translation from the Arabic word Dahab is also the word gold – since it apparently got its name, location. This is not a reason not to believe, is already under verifiable reason to get this name – in the available materials can be read on some earlier yellow metal mining in the nearby mountains, other sources say the typical local color of sand, like gold. Anyhow – for your vacation is important and that sand is really wonderful in Dahab, on the beach go into crystal clear waters Red Sea, then recedes into the distance, a wild mountain ridges.
Destinations Dahab is one of the few in Egypt, which wants to a large extent, individual tourism – here you can actually arrive with bag on back and stay at a very reasonable price camp, or a cheap hotel in the original Bedouin village called Masbat. That does not mean that you prefer the hotel with excellent service, you have to necessarily go somewhere else – a newer part of the site called Dahab City hotels with lag in any way for the leader of Egypt’s accommodation.
Diving in the Red Sea and climbing
On his Egyptian holiday then you will go to Dahab, which is like a diving well, the world-famous dive sites here, including several rarities absolute. Unfortunately, the area of Dahab, not to avoid the gradual destruction of several coral reefs caused by excessive pollution, but there is still available in almost virgin nature as compared to Hurghada.
Of course there is water sports or camel trips into the hinterland. Delicacy are then climbing areas in Wadi el-Rayan Qnai and Qnai el-Atschan.
