SAFAGA WINDSURFING HOLIDAYS

See What Our Clients Say

The staff at the Shams Prestige Hotel were very friendly and the food was very good. The staff at the watersports centres couldn't have been more attentive and the equipment at the windsurfing and kitesurfing schools was excellent. There was a good rescue boat which services both windsurfers and kitesurfers. It is very convenient if for individuals who wish to do both sports.

The Winds Urfing Spot In Safaga

Safaga is perfectly suitable for all skill levels. In Safaga you will definitely enjoy windsurfing, no matter whether you are beginner, intermediate or expert. Tuition takes place in a shallow water area in ideal conditions for practicing water starts. The beginner lagoon is perfect for all novices, as the water is very flat and the wind considerably less strong than anywhere else at the spot. The beach section in front of the centre 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.

Kids In Safaga

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. We offer kids lesson for all levels and have a big choice of kids equipment at the center.

The Wind In Safaga

The wind blows side-offshore from the left in the morning and then turns to sideshore around 11am. The wind conditions in the morning favour an excursion to Toubia Island, a sandy island surrounded by turquoise water only 3.8 kilometres away – don't miss it! In the afternoon the steady wind normally blows sideshore. This wind direction dominates from 11am. until the afternoon. The stronger the wind blows, the longer it stays in the afternoon. The kitesurfing spot is about 300 metres downwind. The areas for windsurfing and kitesurfing tuition are separate from each other.

Extra Activities In Safaga

The main other activity in Safaga, other than Windsurfing and Kitesurfing, is Scuba Diving. Whether you are looking to do a complete beginner course or just a days boat diving, this is all easily arranged at your hotel.
