Yes, Dahab is great. The first time I went to Dahab was in 1989, on a jeep safari from Eilat, and there was absolutely nothing there except some breeze-block huts, a bedouin café on the beach and lots of pot-smoking Europeans. It is some years since I was last there but that time I was fortunate enough to have a divemaster (a pretty Swiss girl !!) to myself most of the week, just me and her, so I got to choose where I wanted to dive. You won't normally see sharks or big fish (although a biggish manta was seen by several people the week I was there) but the coral is some of the best I've seen anywhere in the world. I've been to Sharm several times and these days I would rather go back to Dahab.
