You step off the marina’s wooden gangway and the boat answers with a steady, ocean-slick hum. The Red Sea opens wide—blue so clear it feels like a window into another world—and the crew points the bow toward the Dolphin House, a shallow reef known for resident spinner dolphins and high-visibility snorkeling.
