You step onto the deck as the coastline of Sinai drops away, the Red Sea stretching flat and blue. The boat eases out of the harbor and the wind rearranges the sea; the water dares you to jump in. Over the next day you’ll move between coral bommies and shallow gardens where surgeonfish flash like coins and turtles glide with a deliberate, patient curiosity.
