Safaga is located about 50 kilometres south of Hurghada. Its spacious sandy beaches extend around the deep-sea port of Safaga. The contrast between the azure and turquoise colours of the ocean and the barren desert landscape makes this area an impressive holiday setting. Safaga also offers a prime location to combine with a tour of the ancient pharaonic sites of Luxor - just 3 hours away.

Safaga is the ultimate all-round kitesurf spot and suitable for everyone, from beginners to absolute experts! The turquoise waters of Kite Bay commence upwind of the bathing zone; here kitesurfers will find a waist-deep kitesurf area, the first part of which is protected by a spit. At high tide, Kite Bay is ideally suited to body dragging and water-start instruction and of course for one's first few metres on the kitesurf board. Kitesurfers who have successfully completed their first few water launches can head for the stretch of beach upwind of Kite Bay at low tide. There you will find a very long beach which is just perfect for going upwind. The spot is excellently suited to advanced kitesurfers, due to its outstanding wind potential.

Safaga is perfectly suitable for all skill levels. In Safaga, you will definitely enjoy windsurfing, no matter whether you are beginner, intermediate or expert. Our windsurfing spot in Safaga has a big lagoon with shallow water (depending on the tide). The lagoon has a bit less wind than the rest of the bay and is perfect for lessons for all levels, as well as children looking to learn windsurfing. The beach section is located on a headland so that you can launch easily and directly from the centre. The varied spot offers ideal slalom, freeride and freestyle conditions.
