I visited this laid back tentative WHS as a relaxed stopover site on the way to St Catherine. Camel rides on the beach at sunset are available and snorkeling and diving in the Red Sea are superb (the blue hole is quite a sight).

Dahab is one of the better places i did travel at. Beautiful and peaceful landscapes, blue sea, agreable people that knows receive foreigners and the Blue Hole, an excelent point of diving to see coral reefs and marine animals in the Red Sea.
