Hurghada, Egypt · 8h · up to 1 guests · €440 per person · EN
A dream experience and the fastest way to improve your kitesurfing. It was one of the best and most effective experiences I've ever had at sea. Everything was designed to get you on the water, in the right conditions, with the right support: solid wind every day, perfectly chosen spots, constant assistance.
What is this tour like?
Paradise Kitesurf is a Czech-run station on the lagoon between Hurghada and El Gouna, at the El Khayam residential complex — flat water and shore launching, some 20–30 km north of central Hurghada.

“A dream experience and the fastest way to improve your kitesurfing. It was one of the best and most effective experiences I've ever had at sea. Everything was designed to get you on the water, in the right conditions, with the right support: solid wind every day, perfectly chosen spots, constant assistance.”
“I was there in May/June 2026. Very good spot for shore kitesurfing, flat water, beautiful colours and sea life, corals and dolphins. Good food and kite support services. Perfect also for chilling by the sea, good vibes! Also very professional organisation of the kite safari that I took part in. Recommended.”
“Without a doubt, one of the most beautiful experiences of my life. Feeling at home after the first day and leaving after a week knowing I have an Egyptian family too. I'll miss you, and I hope we can see each other again soon.”
“This place is genuinely one of my all-time favorites, and I keep coming back. The staff are incredibly kind, welcoming, and highly professional. They make you smile every day and at the same time ensure your safety on and off the water. Whenever someone needs help, they react immediately.”
