A warm wind hits the foredeck as the boat slips from Hurghada marina and the city’s skyline shrinks into a thin line. Turquoise water opens up around you, the kind of clarity that makes the sea look like a shallow glass table; ahead, Bianca Island’s white sandbank sits low and bright in the afternoon sun.
