Sinai · Nuweiba, South Sinai

The tables of Nuweiba

Grilled fish and Bedouin salads on mats, facing Arabia.

€ Budget

The camps on the Nuweiba coast serve what they catch, cooked over fire and set on a mat: whole fish, rice, salad, bread. You eat on the ground, without a menu, as the light falls on the mountains opposite.

The extra bit

Give notice in the morning for the evening fish: camps buy according to orders.

Know before you go

Cash only, weak signal, and electricity limited to the evening generator.
