The Red Sea opens like a wide, blue invitation as your hotel shuttle drops you at the marina and the hull slips away from the pier. Salt air and sun lay claim to the deck; the captain plots a course over reefs that catch the light like scattered coins. Dolphins often cut the bow wake—curious, quick—while the sea itself seems to push you toward the first coral garden.
