A week-long kitesurfing experience in the Red Sea, sailing between lagoons and islands while living on board and riding from sunrise to sunset.
This Red Sea kitesurfing cruise offers a unique way to experience one of the world’s most consistent wind destinations, combining daily kitesurfing sessions with life on board a yacht. Instead of staying on land, guests live directly on the water, anchoring each day in carefully selected lagoons and islands known for flat water, steady winds, and uncrowded conditions.
Kitesurfing takes place every day, often starting early in the morning and continuing until sunset, with breaks on board for meals, rest, and recovery between sessions. The yacht serves as a comfortable floating base, allowing riders to maximize time on the water while enjoying a relaxed onboard atmosphere. When it is time to slow down, guests return to the boat to eat, recharge, and share the day’s experiences before heading out again.
This experience is suitable for intermediate and advanced riders looking to improve their skills, as well as for beginners who want to learn in a controlled and supportive environment. Full beginner courses can be arranged during the week, while more experienced kiters benefit from informal coaching and clinics designed to help refine technique and progress at their own pace.
The cruise follows a simple and social rhythm, combining sailing, kitesurfing, and time ashore when possible. Evenings are spent on board or in nearby towns, creating a balance between active days and relaxed nights. The result is an immersive kitesurfing journey focused on progression, shared adventure, and making the most of the Red Sea’s exceptional conditions.

Kitesurfing in the Red Sea Islands from Hurghada
This kitesurfing cruise is designed around daily sessions in the most remote and wind-reliable islands of the northern Red Sea, starting and ending in Hurghada. Sailing allows the crew to reach pristine kite spots far from the coast, where flat water, steady winds, and uncrowded conditions define the experience.
Kitesurfing takes place mainly around islands such as Abu Mungar, Tawila, Geisum, and Ashrafi, each offering different conditions throughout the week. Tawila is known for its large shallow lagoons and smooth water, making it ideal for progression and long sessions. Abu Mungar and Geisum combine flat areas close to shore with more open water, suitable for freeride and playful conditions. Ashrafi is often used as the starting point for downwinders, adding variety for more experienced riders.
The daily route is adapted according to wind forecasts and sea conditions. Sessions can take place early in the morning, during the day, or at sunset, with the support of zodiacs and crew assistance at all times. When wind conditions are lighter, alternative activities such as wakeboarding, snorkeling, or relaxing on board are planned. This flexible approach ensures the best possible kitesurfing conditions while combining sailing, life on board, and exploration of the Red Sea islands.
Snorkeling in the Red Sea Islands
The Red Sea is one of the world’s most renowned destinations for snorkeling, thanks to its clear waters, vibrant coral reefs, and rich marine life. During the cruise, the yacht anchors close to unspoiled islands and shallow reefs around Abu Mungar, Tawila, Geisum, and Ashrafi, allowing easy access directly from the boat.
Snorkeling sessions take place in calm, protected areas with excellent visibility, making them suitable for all levels. Guests can explore colorful coral gardens, schools of tropical fish, and sandy seabeds while enjoying long, relaxed swims. Snorkeling is typically planned between or after kitesurfing sessions, or on lighter wind days, offering a natural balance between water activities and time to relax on board.
All main snorkeling spots are selected daily by the crew based on sea conditions, ensuring safe and enjoyable experiences throughout the week.
Travel organizer tips
What to pack for a sailing holiday?
Pack smart for your yacht charter: choose a soft bag instead of a hard suitcase, bring lightweight layers, reef-safe sunscreen, and non-slip shoes for onboard use. A couple of swimsuits and motion sickness remedies can also make a big difference. Each boat has limited storage, so pack light—but wisely! Need help building the perfect list? Read our full guide: What to pack in a suitcase for a yacht charter
What’s a Typical Day Like on a Yacht Charter?
Start your day with a swim in a quiet bay, sail to hidden beaches or seaside villages, and enjoy a slow lunch on deck. Afternoons mean snorkeling, sunbathing, or exploring ashore. As the sun sets, your boat anchors in a scenic cove or near a harbor—ready for a relaxed dinner and a night under the stars. Curious about the full experience? Discover more in our guide: What’s a typical day like on a sailing holiday?
Who Handles Cooking and Cleaning on a Yacht Charter?
On skipper-only charters, guests usually share cooking and cleaning duties—think salads, pasta, and good teamwork. If there's a hostess, light meals and tidying are included, but it's still a casual, collaborative vibe. On fully crewed yachts, you’ll enjoy full service with a chef and crew managing everything. Want to know what’s included in your setup? Read the full guide: Who takes care of cooking and cleaning on a sailing charter?
What Happens in Case of Bad Weather During a Sailing Holiday?
Summer sailing holidays rarely face major weather issues—but when the sea gets rough, skippers adjust the route for your safety. Expect protected bays, marina stops, or a change in plan. These moments often lead to unexpected gems: local towns to explore, time to relax on board, or cozy dinners ashore. Curious about how crews handle these changes?

Seeing the Red Sea this way is simply amazing. Sailing between remote islands like Tawila and Geisum, with flat water and steady wind, makes every day feel perfect. What I loved most was the rhythm on board: kiting, good food, rest, and great company. Everything feels natural and stress free. I would do this trip again without hesitation.

Hurghada is just the starting point. After a few hours of sailing, you reach completely wild places with empty beaches and crystal clear water. Every day is different, but always well balanced between sport and relaxation. Even for non expert riders, the atmosphere is friendly and reassuring. A kite safari is the best way to experience the Red Sea.

This itinerary is perfect for people who truly enjoy kitesurfing and life on board. There is little unnecessary sailing and a lot of time on the water, always choosing the best spots based on wind conditions. The northern Red Sea offers excellent riding and very few crowds. It feels like real freedom, not a resort holiday but a genuine sailing adventure.
