Salt air and dry stone meet in Dahab as the minibus eases away from the town and the Sinai’s ochre ridgelines push toward the Gulf of Aqaba. By mid-morning you’re walking a narrow canyon with a Bedouin guide, sipping herbal tea while the cliff faces cast cool shadows; later the sea dares you to slip beneath a coral roof at the Three Pools.
