12 Must-Do Activities in Dahab, Egypt
The Red Sea coast offers a view of Egypt that’s totally different from its ancient pyramids or the frenetic streets of Cairo. Located 60 miles / 95 kilometers north of the famous resort town of Sharm el-Sheikh, Dahab was once a sleepy Bedouin fishing village. Today, it’s a laid-back, bohemian beach town popular with backpackers and renowned as one of the best dive destinations in Africa. Although scuba diving is undoubtedly Dahab’s premier claim to fame, there are plenty of other activities available in and around this Sinai Peninsula jewel, many inspired by the proximity of the Sinai Desert.
