The jeep eases up a sand-sculpted ridge and the Red Sea resorts fall behind as the desert opens: wind-swept dunes, stony plateaus and a low horizon that seems to stretch an ocean of sand. In the fading light, the drive becomes quieter, the air cooler, and the silhouettes of a Bedouin camp take shape—smoke from the grill, lanterns swinging, and the scent of spiced lamb.
