Dahab, the best place a diver can stay in Egypt. I have been to Egypt several times but nothing comes close to Dahab. The atmosphere is relaxed and the food is great. Everytime we went to Egypt I got caught by the "curse of the pharao" exept for the time we stayed in Dahab. This says enough. Great p…
