Dahab is an easy going place on the Gulf of Aqaba about 100km north of Sharm el Sheik, Egypt, South Sinai. The Lonely Planet travel guide about Egypt describes it with the words "Dahab is the wannabe Koh Samui of the Middle East". You'll find cheap accommodation as well as resorts with any facility you might want to have during your vacation. There are lots of restaurants right on the waterfront from where you can watch the moon rising over Saudi Arabia while you are having your dinner. During the day you can just hang out on the waterfront, do some excellent snorkelling, horse riding, camel safaris and so on. Local travel agencies offer trips to Mount Sinai, St. Katherine's Monastery and even to Petra in Jordan.
As a diving destination Dahab offers world class diving almost in front of your hotel or resort. We'll have some dive site descriptions coming soon in our diving section.

Nirvana Hotel and Dive Center
Nirvana originally describes the state of being free from both suffering and the cycle of rebirth. Other resources say its an ideal condition of rest, harmony, stability, or joy. If you are on holiday, this might be exactly what you are looking for. When you stay at Nirvana Dive Center in Dahab you will soon feel reminded of the Nirvana itself, as you won't want to search any further for accomodation, good diving, excellent service and very nice people. Not to mention the restaurant, which serves the best indian food you ever had.
Anil, the american/indian owner, created an atmosphere with a truly indian touch. Besides diving pictures you will also find indian paintings and Hindu signs on the walls and over the doors, which makes this place unique in Dahab. Besides, the people working at Nirvana will not only offer you their very friendly service, but make you feel at home. As for the diving you will be taken care of by professionals who know how to make your dive trip unforgettable in an easy going way. You will wonder why you ever went out diving with bigger dive shops and in big groups before.
