Dahab Pictures

Filed under: Egypt,Round-The-World-2003 — stephane @ 10:25 am

A couple of pictures from Dahab. It has been taken early in the morning, early being a relative notion in Dahab. It is next to impossible to take a breakfast before 8-8:30AM has nothing is opened as you can see from empty ‘streets’. :)

Lots of cats in Dahab. May be a bit sticky and they eat whatever they find should it be pizza, bread, onions...Lots of cats in Dahab. May be a bit sticky and they eat whatever they find should it be pizza, bread, onions...

  2. Hello
    Just having a nosey around, some lovely pictures of the “new” dahab, to be honst I think it has lost a bit of its charm from 10 years ago, but still a cool place to go, but slightly too many poncy divers for my liking, but hey, you cannot stop progress eh?

  3. Hi, I stayed at the Camelot Camp in 1995, the owners George and Farak, lovely blokes. Its horrible to see how much it has changed but hey, I have my memories! Cheers. By the way how much is a basic room now? It was about £1 a night in ’95!!!!You could sit by the sea on cushions all night long-bliss!!!!Eating pancakes!!!!

  4. Hello.
    I visited Dahab several times, from Eilat, in 1993.
    It REALLY has changed! Sad though, I remember it as a really chilled place where people liked to relax, some smoked the locals offerings and generally take it easy. I remember sleeping so peacefully there. I suppose it was inevitable progress would envelop this charming little place. I wonder what Wael, my friend in the London Restaurant is doing now, great guy.
    The world has changed a lot since my travelling days. Three of my favourite places have subsequently been bombed: Bali, New York and now, today, Dahab. ITs a cruel world we live in sometimes. God Bless.
