The Salama Coloured Canyon takes its name from the colours of its walls: red, pink, purple, yellow, grey and white sandstone streaked with granite, copper, cobalt and ancient corals. It is a well-preserved piece of old seabed — a giant natural crack in the sandstone cliffs, probably formed by an earthquake, about 5 km long, 25–30 m high and 2–10 m wide.

Also in the programme

  • A camel ride along the coast (and an optional quad ride)
  • Snorkelling at Three Pools, a reef with three natural pools
  • Lunch at a seaside restaurant
  • Shopping at the bazaar in Dahab

My husband suggested Salama Coloured Canyon, so we booked it. On the whole we liked everything — the canyon is stunning. The camel ride didn't do much for me personally, but my husband loved it.
