The boat slides away from Hurghada’s marina and the city’s heat thins into open blue—salty air tugging at hair, the Red Sea widening like a promise. Within an hour the skyline is a low memory and Hula Hula Island appears: a ribbon of white sand, shallow turquoise shallows, and coral gardens that hum with fish.
