It was a good idea to save the last day of our vacation for a wonderful day in the desert. We not only take back a nice memory but also a lot of sand. Thank you very much for a great tour. Sigrid More....
One of the best beach towns in Egypt is Dahab, a small bohemian village set on the shores of the Red Sea. Our Egypt Beaches Dahab tour is a simple package holiday to Dahab, allowing you complete flexibility to enjoy your time in Dahab as you wish, whilst having our team on hand to assist your with any extra activities you may want to partake in. Dahab (meaning 'Gold' in Arabic) is a sleepy fishing village that takes its name from the golden sandy beaches found here. A place of unique beauty, it is surrounded by world class coral reefs, beautiful coastlines, rugged mountains and vast desert landscapes. Travelers return her time and time again, to relax in its bohemian vibe cafe's, soak up the year round sun, enjoy the red sea coral reefs or partake in one of the many water sports available. For the more adventurous, there are many day trips and trekking safari's available, and the water sports laguna is blessed with wind year round, making it ideal for kite surfing and windsurfing. This tour can also be used as an extension package, giving you time to relax and recuperate after a busy or challenging EMBAH adventure tour.
Coral Coast Hotel | Our recommended mid-range hotel in Dahab is the Coral Coast Hotel***. With 30 en-suite rooms, a private beach, restaurant and bar (all set on the shore of the famous dive site, El Garden) this idyllic location lies just a few minutes walk from the main bay area of Dahab. Rooms are simple and chic, and come equipped with air conditioning and a private balcony or terrace with wonderful sea views. The in-house dive center: Fantasy Red Sea, offers great dive courses and boating excursions, and the Coral Coast wellness concept boasts a host of on-site massage, yoga classes & therapies.
EMBAH is committed to the elements of responsible & sustainable tourism, and this tour boasts multiple benefits to the local community. While travelling in the Desert & Mountainous regions of Sinai, work opportunities and therefore income is distributed between multiple desert dwelling families. Wherever possible we purchase local produce, encourage souvenir purchase from the Bedouin women and use local homes for meals. The projects we support in this region are:
Nawamis Desert School | An initiative developed by a UK charity that was brought about to enable the Bedouin villagers to remain in their desert homes and maintain their traditional way of life and still have their children educated. It also provides a special meeting place where Bedouin tribes can gather and celebrate.
Medicinal and Aromatic Plant Gardens | a local initiative to preserve Rare medicinal plants unique to the region. Herbs gardens have been created on various plots in land throughout St Catherine’s and are also cultivated in greenhouses for preserving biodiversity, research and for sale.
