El Gouna
KitePeople El Gouna is located in the Egyptian Red Sea, about 20 kilometers north of Hurghada. It is a spot specifically built to welcome kitesurfers, integrated into a modern resort with atypical architecture. The KitePeople center occupies a long private beach of fine sand with views of the turquoise lagoons and the orange-hued mountains in the background.
The spot extends over several square kilometers and offers an ideal setting for all levels. The shallow water, stable weather conditions, and professional infrastructure make it a benchmark destination for kitesurfing in Egypt. The atmosphere remains touristy with luxury hotels and full services, far from local authenticity but very accessible for travelers.

Detaillierte Informationen
The wind comes in side-on to side-onshore, making it a spot particularly suitable for beginners. The navigation area extends over a vast and shallow lagoon, with a width of over 800 meters of private beach allowing for safe take-offs and landings. The water generally does not exceed knee or hip height in the progression area.
Launching is particularly easy due to the sandy bottom and the almost total absence of rocks or reef remnants in the main area. Experienced riders can head further offshore to find more technical conditions. A small upwind ride of about 10 minutes allows access to more distant navigation areas. The spot has several zones: the main spot in front of the KitePeople station, and other nearby lagoons accessible, particularly to the north where the wind is more consistent with less turbulence.
Tides significantly alter the configuration of the spot and should be taken into account to optimize sessions. The turquoise and shallow water offers excellent visibility and maximum safety for learning.
