The Best of Surfing Elements

Location : Egypt, South Sinai, 90 km from the international airport and resort Sharm-el-Sheikh

Season: All year round

Openning hours : 8.30am-5.30pm

Dahab is an ideal sandy kite spot featuring shallow areas and larger, deeper windsurfing lagoons that offer flat, clear water conditions. This amazing location is also perfect for practicing wingfoiling. Protected from the open sea by a long, narrow sandbank, Dahab is suited for every level from beginners to advanced.

The wind is predominantly offshore, and coral reefs are clearly marked and safely distanced from riders. Beyond the reefs, there’s an accessible wave zone for those looking for a more thrilling experience. Located within a secure hotel zone, this kite spot is just half a kilometer from a safe and picturesque town, making it a perfect destination for water sports enthusiasts.
