Overview
On the east coast of Sinai, Sharm El Sheikh is a well-known kite destination for its warm waters and resort-style setting by the Red Sea. In Nabq Bay, the water is often flat and shallow, with a protected lagoon and consistent side-shore wind that makes the spot particularly enjoyable for learning as well as practicing maneuvers. The area is reputed to be very accessible, with a sandy bottom and few obstacles in the water, which reassures beginners and intermediate riders. Further out, there are also some waves and opportunities for freeride or jumping, especially when the wind is well established. It’s a spot that works year-round, with conditions often considered the most solid from September to June.
