The kite safari in Egypt is far more than a typical kitesurfing holiday. It is an expedition to the most beautiful spots of the Red Sea. Instead of visiting the same beach every day, you live on a comfortable yacht for a week and reach remote islands, lagoons, and sandbanks that are inaccessible from the shore. Consistent wind, turquoise water, and endless shallow areas create perfect conditions for beginners, intermediate riders, and professionals alike. While others launch from crowded beaches, you enjoy empty spots, plenty of space, and maximum freedom. Sunshine, warm temperatures, and a relaxed atmosphere make the safari the ideal mix of sport, nature, and community. Anyone who has experienced a kitesafari understands immediately: this is the most intense way to experience kitesurfing.

Our kite camp takes place in cooperation with our partner Kitesafari.eu. To participate, you need to choose whether you bring your own equipment or rental from us. After booking, you will receive two separate invoices. Kitesafari.eu is responsible for the kitesafari and transportation, while Avid Kiteboarding provides the complete kite coaching on site. Flights are not included.
Your adventure begins in Hurghada with a transfer to the harbor. After check-in on the motor yacht, you will get to know the crew and the group. The cabins are comfortably equipped, the communal areas invite you to relax, and on the sun deck you can already enjoy your first view of the open sea. After a safety briefing, the boat sets off toward the first spots.
Each day follows the wind: breakfast, spot changes, kite sessions, snacks, relaxation, and back on the water. Often, two to four sessions per day are possible. At lunchtime, the boat anchors directly in a lagoon, so you can start kiting at any time. After sunset, there is a shared dinner, stories from the day, and relaxed hours under the starry sky. Depending on weather conditions, the boat travels to the next spot during the night or early in the morning. This combination of movement, nature, and comfort creates a truly unique safari feeling.
The Red Sea is one of the most wind-reliable kitesurfing regions in the world. Thermal effects, stable high-pressure systems, and geographical conditions create consistent side to side-offshore winds. In spring and autumn in particular, wind probability is over 80 percent. Winds often range between 18 and 28 knots, making conditions ideal for twintip, foil, or directional boards. Even on lighter wind days, conditions are often sufficient for relaxed sessions or foiling. This reliability makes Egypt a top destination for anyone looking to maximize time on the water. Instead of waiting for wind, you are on the board almost every day.
Egypt impresses with vast, shallow lagoons and butter-smooth water, perfect conditions for learning new tricks and maneuvers. Geisum offers varied bays and long sandbanks. Ashrafi stands out with mirror-flat water and kilometer-long shallow areas. The colors range from turquoise to deep blue, coral reefs shimmer beneath the surface, and often you are out there with your group alone. No hotels, no roads, just sea, sky and wind. Each spot has its own character and provides new impressions. This diversity makes every day exciting and varied.
Tawila means “flat” in Arabic and is a large sand island that we reach first. On the southern coast, a narrow sand spit extends into the sea, forming a bay with waist-deep turquoise water. The wind blows offshore from the northwest, creating mirror-flat water and ideal freestyle conditions. The shallow area is extensive, and our support boat is waiting in the lee in case anyone drifts off.
Geisum consists of two islands, a northern and a southern one. The Geisum Islands offer an incredible kitesurf playground with numerous bays, peninsulas, and reef-protected lagoons. One of our favorite sessions in Geisum is a downwinder from north to south, ranging between five and ten kilometers. Experience unforgettable moments with us, combining impressive nature and great kite sessions.
Ashrafi is one of the northernmost islands of the archipelago and offers something truly special. The waist-deep lagoon, surrounded by reefs and sandbanks, impresses with its large riding area and turquoise blue water. Outside the sandbank, smaller to medium sized waves can also be found for more advanced watersports athletes. Ashrafi is a safari highlight for everyone, from beginners to professionals.
