Your guide to five days in Dahab

Dahab is the relaxed side of the Red Sea: a small town between the mountains and the reef, loved by divers, climbers and backpackers. This package gives you its best sea and desert trips with free time in between.

Why Dahab

Dahab has no big resorts, just a seafront of cafés, small hotels and dive centres. The reef starts a few metres from the shore, the mountains rise behind the town, and the pace is slow. Read reasons to visit Dahab.

The sea

The second day is for the reefs: the famous Blue Hole, then a camel ride and boat along the protected coast of Ras Abu Galum to the calm water of the Blue Lagoon.

The desert

The other days take you inland: a sunset camel ride to Wadi Stars, a walk through the red and gold walls of the Coloured Canyon with a swim in the Wadi Weshwashy pools, and a quad ride to Wadi Qunai and the Lagoon.

Where to stay

The package includes a hotel with breakfast. For a lower price and a social atmosphere, stay at Manzzel Dahab Hostel.

Best time to go

Dahab is good all year. Spring and autumn are ideal; summer is hot but the sea is warm; winter evenings are cool. Read when to visit Dahab.
