Dahab is such a great place to explore the Red Sea. It’s very chilled and friendly and hotels don’t come more friendly than Dive Urge. The staff are so welcoming and just can’t do enough to make your stay as comfortable as possible. My husband is coeliac so dining is a bit of an issue here but the chef made special food for him every day. Including gluten free donuts on his birthday!
The place has a very relaxed feel. It’s not a smart hotel, more like a guest house where you can kick off your shoes and walk around in your swimmies. Breakfast is on the beach with the waves lapping gently close by and a view of the beautiful sea and mountains.
Beds are really comfortable and there is a fridge and water dispenser in your room.
Everyone is welcome here-the last time we visited was with very young kids, now they are teenagers and there was lots to keep them happy. The house reef is a stunning snorkel.
Now to the diving… the reefs are full of coral and fish. So many fish! There are a load of dives sites, mostly shore dives, and they drive you to these up and down the coast. Some are really close by and others you might go to and stay out for the day, having lunch in one of the lovely local restaurants. Eating out here is very reasonable in price and delicious. There are safe places to leave all your kit and valuables and many sites have a shower as well as a toilet.
You set the pace. If you want to fit in lots of diving then you can. Or you can just do one or two each day… totally as you wish!
Our dive guide was exceptional. She was ultra clear in her dive plans and explanations when training and guiding. Thorough and attentive, she helped the children and me with every dive. She gently encouraged my daughter to try some training dives and now she is an Advanced Open Water diver which was a real bonus! There are snorkelling options for non-divers and the reefs are covered in life. We saw a turtle and octopus on the reef right in the middle of Dahab! You will not be disappointed!
The food at Dive Urge is great-Egyptian breakfast is a dinner winner with freshly made falafels, cheese and flat bread. The pancakes are also really special and come in beautifully shaped patterns-different every day! Everything that comes out of the kitchen is delicious and beautifully presented. And all served with a big smile from the wonderful Attwah who will go to the ends of the earth to make your stay the best ever!
We hope to be back again very soon! - via
