Dahab, Eqypt
Great for divers and non-divers
Discover an all-year dive destination - Dahab on the Sinai peninsula. Once a backpacker haven this sleepy Red Sea resort, with a dramatic setting, clings to the fringes of the Sinai desert.
 
From a tiny Bedhouin settlement 30 years ago, Dahab has gained a rather fashionable reputation as the new 'Goa' or 'Koh Samui'. Great for divers and non-divers alike.

Coral reefs
As you wander around Dahab you pick up snatches of conversations and buzz words like the 'Canyon' and the 'Blue Hole', places that are talked about in hushed tones. Once underwater you understand why.
 
The Red Sea has the best coral and diving anywhere in the northern hemisphere. And for many divers, the 'Blue Hole' is one of the most famous sites in the world - dropping down to 100m (328ft).
Value for money
Dahab isn't just for hard core divers, its treasures are there for everyone to enjoy, including snorkellers. If it's a value for money diving holiday that you're after then you should definitely go and experience Dahab.
 
Don't dive? It's also one of the premier destinations for windsurfers. Not a windsurfer either? Don't worry just go and enjoy the beaches, the history and the culture.
