You must be lucky then like me but Ive lived in the Gulf for the last 24
years so Im used to it, but most people will get Gyppy belly but yes
bottled water is essential even for your teeth, drink lots of it too it
really helps :D
Any type of food shouldnt be a problem but make sure its cooked and hot
if posible, beware of salad in the cheaper hotels it is probably washed
in tap water!! Dont let it put you off though, the red sea is pretty
good all round and shouldnt be missed by any self respecting freediver
or scuba diver

I've been out to Dahab a few time and thought it was great. A few people got
gyppy belly but nothing too bad- the hotels are all finished and the cafes
and bars are great. No boats anywhere though so it's all shore diving.
The best place seems to be Divers Down Under at the Seven Heaven Hotel- well
set up for all standards of diving (not sure about techies though)

Just got back from Dahab. Most of the diving is shore diving but
there are a few boats. There are a couple of sharm style day boats
and a few ribs around. These give access to rarely dived sites that
can't be accessed by jeep. There is some fabulous coral and a few
bigger fish to been seen at these sites.

Food was fine but I don't think will be any michelin stars awarded
