Dahab is located on the southeast coast of Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula.
It experiences dry desert climate. In summer, temperatures rise to 40C. Its proximity to the mountains, however, makes the heat bearable. In the winter months of January and February, temperatures dip to 15C.
Formerly a small Bedouin fishing village, Dahab has transformed into a busy costal tourist centre. The economy now depends on the tourist flow.
Expectedly, the local population, the Bedouins, make their living through the Tourism industry, with establishments on the waterfront, working as guides and as traders and craftsmen in the local markets.
