The sun is lowering over a wide Indian Ocean horizon as you climb slowly onto a blue-blanketed camel and the sand cools underfoot. The rhythm of the camel’s walk and the sound of surf set a steady pace; within minutes the town’s noise slips behind you and the shoreline stretches both ways, dotted with the long shadows of late afternoon.
