The peaceful Bedouin town of Dahab is growing into a retreat on the East Coast of the Sinai. During the occupation of Dahab by the Israelis, it opened up for tourists. The inhabitants of Dahab, which means gold, chose the name for it golden, powdery coast. Dahab stretches out over a broad boulder and sand plain at the end of the Wadi Nasab. It derived from a small oasis where Bedouins once settled. The outskirts of the modest small town flourished with diving camps and over the past few years have become a divers and vacationers paradise. The shore of the tourist settlement came alive with beach life. You can try windsurfing, rent row boats or take land and water trips. Natives allow you to use their horses and camels for walks in the area.
