You step out of an air-conditioned 4x4 into a wind that has carried frankincense and sea spray across this coast for millennia. The road climbs toward low, folded mountains where terraces and scattered villages hold simple stone mausoleums; the guide’s voice places names and dates while the landscape keeps its own slow watch.
