The sun sits low and liquid over the Red Sea as you swing a leg over a calm, well-trained camel. The animal rises with deliberate grace; the dune ahead rolls like a slow wave daring you to keep pace. Over the next two hours you move between wind-sculpted sand and the salt-scented fringe of the coast, where gulls call and the sea answers in a steady hush.
