Kite
Kitesurfing on the Red Sea is a dream for every rider. Think endless turquoise lagoons, mirror-flat water and steady wind — the perfect playground to push your skills. 🌬️🪁
Our kitecruise Egypt route takes you across shallow sandbanks and hidden islands with endless space to ride. Join downwinders with tender support, dial in your tricks on butter-flat lagoons, or just ride long sessions until the sun sinks into the sea.
Whether you want to level up, learn new tricks or simply enjoy perfect conditions and tropical vibes — the Red Sea is your ultimate kite spot.
Weather & Wind
Spring on the Red Sea (March) marks the start of the kite season: steady northeasterly trade winds deliver consistent 15–25 knots almost every day. Perfect for long progression sessions, first jumps, or endless cruising over flat water.
The weather is warm and dry with plenty of sun; air temperatures are around 25–30 °C and the sea is already pleasant at 22–24 °C. A shorty or lycra is usually enough, though a thin wetsuit can be nice in the early mornings. March on the Red Sea means sunny days, steady wind, and ideal conditions for every style — from freestyle to foil. 🌬️🌞🪁

Just back from the Wadden Weekend Kite Trip with KiteActive, and wow, what an awesome weekend! 🌊🪁
Everything was super well arranged, the food was absolutely amazing, and the vibes were super chill. We had great wind conditions, and the progression sessions were epic.
What really stood out was how much time the guys took to explain things and help us push our kiting skills further. You could really feel they wanted to see everyone progress, and that made it even more fun and motivating.
Great people, great vibes, good food, good wind, can’t ask for more. Already looking forward to the next one!

Yallah habibi, what an epic week this was! Just got back from Egypt after my second kite holiday with KiteActive — and once again, absolutely worth repeating!
The spot is amazing: you can walk straight from your hotel room onto the (kite) beach. The collaboration with Kitelagoon Hurghada was top-notch — we were fully taken care of (pumping kites, launching and landing, chill tunes on the beach, warm tea during breaks). Everything was perfectly arranged by KiteActive as well — from a group chat and quick replies to any questions, to thinking along about boardbags and capturing awesome (action) shots!
We also had such a fun group (which of course KiteActive can’t fully control), but it made the week even better. On the — luckily only two — windless days, we went wakeboarding, snorkeling, and just enjoyed the resort to the fullest. Under the always cheerful (and super experienced) supervision of Roderick, this week was not only super fun but also incredibly educational — what a legend he is!
Beginner or advanced: I recommend going on a trip with KiteActive to everyone — you won’t regret it 🙂 Let’s go!

Top locations — I’ve joined trips to Brazil and Rhodes! Everything was super well organized, with a chilled vibe, awesome people, and relaxed but spot-on coaching. You get tips & tricks for both beginners and independent riders. And there’s even a photographer joining to capture your progress with epic (drone) shots. Highly recommended!
Just got back from Sicily too — such an incredible spot. And that Italian food from our own chef… buonissimo!!
Mirte L
Had an amazing week in Sicily! A super fun group and enthusiastic, friendly guidance from KiteActive. Even when there’s no wind, they always line up awesome activities. Definitely recommended!
Valentijn Munsterman
Wat een chille gasten zijn dit! Op madnes meerdere clinics bij ze gevolgd en hier en daar een dansje met ze gedaan. Zeer zeker aan te raden!
Bart Biermans
Wat een mooie ervaring. Na een aantal lessen in Nederland heb ik tijdens mijn Kite Acitve vakantie op Sicilie de eindjes aan elkaar kunnen knopen. Van de 6 dagen hebben we 5 dagen op het water gestaan. Goede begeleiding, heerlijk eten en een prachtige locatie direct aan de Kite spot. Ik ga zeker dit jaar nog een keer met ze mee, dit keer naar Brazilië, die bekend staat om zijn down winders. Dit smaakt naar meer!
Sandra te Loo
2 super leuke weken gehad in Sicilie met het team van Kite Active! Mooie kite sessies meegemaakt, leuke mensen om ons heen en vooral veel genoten van de mooie spot 😊
Tot de volgende!

Gabrielle Van der Jagt
Op kite vakantie naar Sicilië en de Waddenzee geweest met KiteActive. Enorm goede begeleiding, fijne kite spots, goed gegeten, leuke alternatieve (weinig wind) programma’s met goede tips en vooraf goed geholpen met boeken. Alles was mogelijk ! Absolute aanrader!
The Journey
Go with the flow
On the Red Sea, it’s all about freedom, wind, and the ultimate kite vibe. Forget fixed schedules on land — this is a floating kite paradise where you wake up every day surrounded by turquoise lagoons and sandbanks. Everything moves to the rhythm of the wind — laid-back sessions, chill vibes, and plenty of time to enjoy.
What to expect?
- Daily kitesurfing on the most stunning spots of the Red Sea
- An experienced KiteActive host on board who can organize optional downwinders, clinics, and coaching
- Fresh and tasty meals, shared dining on deck, and the good vibes of a close kite crew
- A comfortable liveaboard with sun deck, lounge, and everything you need for a relaxed recovery after your session
Even if the wind takes a break, you’re set: snorkel, SUP, swim or just soak up the sun. And of course — sundowners, music, and nights under the stars are all part of the kitecruise Egypt vibe. 🌍🌬️🪁

We’ll kite all day at Abu Mungar. At sunset, the boat sets course for Geisum, our second spot of the week.

Friday
Downwinder day! We leave early in the morning (before breakfast) from Ashrafi for a relaxed downwinder to Geisum. We’ll kite in Geisum until lunch and then sail back to the marina. The final night is spent on the boat in the harbor, with the option to enjoy one last dinner on board or head into town for a fun evening with food and drinks.

Questions?
Do you have a question? We’ve selected a few frequently asked questions for you.
How is the group?
The Group
The vibe on board is relaxed and social: you’ll share the week with an international crew of around 12–24 kiters who all share the same passion for wind and water. During the day everyone is out on the water, helping each other with tips, tricks and plenty of stoke. Between sessions you chill together on the sun deck, share stories about your best runs and soak up the laid-back vibes.
The mix of levels makes it even more fun: beginners and advanced riders inspire each other, and there’s always someone up for a sunset session, a downwinder or just a drink at sundown. In no time it feels like one tight crew, making it an unforgettable week together.
Do we get on shore?
On Shore
Yes — during the kitecruise you can definitely get off the boat! We anchor at remote islands and sandbanks where you can not only kite, but also plant your feet in the sand. Think chilling on the beach, swimming in crystal-clear lagoons, or a spontaneous BBQ on an uninhabited island.
We also occasionally stop at local harbors for supplies, where you can briefly go ashore to walk around or pick up some souvenirs. This way, you combine the ultimate sense of freedom at sea with the occasional dose of solid ground under your feet.
How to get there?
Travel
Flying to Hurghada International Airport (HRG) on Egypt’s Red Sea is easy. Many European cities offer direct flights, often several times a week, with a short travel time of just 4 to 5 hours.
On arrival day, you’ll be picked up at the airport and transferred to the marina in about 20 minutes, where the boat is already waiting for you. This way you can smoothly switch from plane to liveaboard — and your kitecruise Egypt adventure can kick off right away.
Things I need to know?
Extra Costs & Tips
Besides the trip price, there are a few things to keep in mind so you won’t be surprised:
- Tips for the crew: usually around €50–€70 per person per week (cash on board)
- Egypt visa: available on arrival in Hurghada, approx. €25 (cash in USD or EUR)
- Alcoholic drinks: not included — you can bring your own or buy limited options on board
- Insurance: travel and cancellation insurance that covers kitesurfing is mandatory
- Kite rental or lessons: optional if you don’t have your own gear or want to learn more
Almost everything else is included, like accommodation, meals, transfers, and use of tenders and rescue. So you can expect very few extra expenses on board.
