The sun breaks over Hurghada’s marina and the speedboat answers with a low, steady growl—salt on your lips, the horizon a flat line that dares you forward. In four hours you can cross to Giftun, skirt coral gardens, and chase the quick arcs of dolphins that ride the bow wave. The islands sit on the northern edge of the Red Sea’s reef belt, where ancient tectonic rifting and uplifted limestone created shallow lagoons and fringing reefs teeming with color.
