Launch notes

Flat water conditions make this ideal for beginners; launch from the hotel beach with NW to N winds being most consistent. The shallow, protected waters are forgiving but require attention to shallow zones during entry and exit.

Gear & clothing

Gear · Use 14-17m kites for average 13.9kt winds; smaller 12-14m kites provide more control in variable conditions. Directional or hybrid boards are ideal for flat water progression and maneuver practice.

Clothing · A lightweight 3/2mm wetsuit or rash guard is sufficient year-round due to warm Red Sea temperatures (24-28°C); summer months may require minimal coverage.

Crowd & etiquette

Respect designated kite zones and stay clear of swimming areas and boat traffic lanes. Coordinate with other kiters and the hotel beach management regarding launch times and zones.
