More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the minivan into a wide wash of ochre sand and sharp mountain silhouettes; the desert greets you with a dry wind that seems to push you toward the open arena. The paintball field known as "Island of Hell" is an open-air playground carved into the Safari area outside Sharm El Sheikh — a raw stretch of Sinai where the mountains lean over the sands like watchful hands.

Hydrate before you go
Bring a full water bottle for the drive and drink regularly — the desert dehydrates quickly even on mild days.
Wear sturdy closed-toe shoes
Sandy, rocky terrain and sharp scrub make trail runners or hiking shoes a better choice than sandals.
Protect against sun and dust
Use high-SPF sunscreen, a brimmed hat for transit, and consider a buff to keep sand out of your mouth and ears.
Notify guides of health limits
If you have back, heart, or pregnancy-related concerns, tell the operator in advance — some participants will be turned away for safety.
