The Kite Bubble Spot
Egypt · Sinaï Sud
The Kite Bubble Spot in Sharm El Sheikh, in the bay of Nabq in South Sinai, is a lagoon protected by a reef offering more than 3 km² of flat water. It is a favored spot for both beginners and experienced riders who perfect their tricks safely. Just 10 minutes from the airport, it remains preserved and picturesque despite the neighboring resorts.
The riding area is shallow, with water up to the knees or chest in most sectors. The spot is accessible directly from the beach of Coral Sea Water World or Laguna Vista, with a certified IKO school on site. The atmosphere is relaxed, with chill spaces for families and friends.
Open all year round, it is a paradise for freeride kitesurfing, with no motorboats or obstacles to disrupt sessions.
Historical averages by month — not a live forecast.
The wind mainly blows cross to cross-onshore from the northwest (NW) or north, making the lagoon ideal for launching and taking off directly from the sandy beach. The riding area extends over more than 3-4 km² of flat and shallow water, protected by a reef that blocks waves from the open sea and limits the impact of tides. Beginners can progress safely in waters up to their knees, while advanced riders find space for jumps and flat tricks in the center of the lagoon.
Launching is easy on clean sand over about 1 km of beach, with no jetties or bridges to complicate things. The water remains flat even in strong winds, with only a slight chop during intense gusts. A local weather station allows checking accurate forecasts, and rescue is provided by the school with beach assistance available at all times. There are no marked prohibited areas, but reefs should be navigated around for deeper zones.
