Diving, desert safari


As a tourist, you can take advantage of the opportunity to go diving under the guidance of an instructor and get a glimpse of the beauty of the underwater world, take a camel ride, sometimes combined with unconventional skiing in the sand dunes, or take part in a ride into the desert in an Off Road Safari. If you have your own off-road vehicle, there's the Overnighter Drive, a two-day desert drive that lasts overnight.
