Can I join the Kite Safari if I have never kitesurfed?

Yes, and it is one of the best ways to start. The Red Sea lagoons have shallow, flat water and steady wind: you can stand, there are no waves and you learn safely. With the beginner course with unlimited hours you learn with our instructors, and once it is over you keep riding with rental gear.

I already ride: is the Kite Safari for me?

Yes. Flat water, steady wind and uncrowded spots are ideal for progressing: two sessions a day, instructors following you, video coaching in the evening and downwinders between the islands, with the rescue boat always close by.

When are the next departures?

The next departures are: 17–24 April 2027, 8–15 May 2027, 16–23 October 2027. Each trip lasts 8 days / 7 nights. Places on the yacht are limited: leave us your details to hold yours.

How much does it cost and what is included?

Prices start from 1.250 €. Included: 7 nights on the yacht in a double cabin, all-inclusive board with three buffets a day, snacks and drinks including alcohol, beach assistance, rescue boat, wakeboarding, snorkelling and airport–yacht–airport transfers. Not included: the flight to Hurghada, the Egyptian visa (about €25), the marine park fee and crew tips (about €250) and travel insurance.

Do I need to bring my own gear?

No. You can bring your own (there is storage on board for kite and wing gear, with a compressor and pumps) or rent a complete set directly from us.

Can I come on my own?

Of course, and it is the best way to come: many people arrive alone and go home with a family. Cabins are doubles and sharing is part of the magic of the tribe.

How do I get there and do I need a visa?

You fly to Hurghada (the flight is not included). On arrival a transfer takes you to the yacht, and the return transfer is included too. To enter Egypt you need a tourist visa, which costs about €25.

Can I also go wingfoiling?

Yes: the Kite & Wing Safari is designed for both disciplines. There is storage on board for wing gear too, and every day the spot is chosen according to the wind.

Kite Safari Egypt 2027: Kitesurf Yacht Trip

The trip

What is the Kite & Wing Safari in Egypt

Picture yourself waking up to the gentle rocking of the yacht. You walk up on deck with a coffee in your hand: below you, water so clear it barely seems to be there; ahead, a deserted island and the north wind starting to blow. The only decision of the day is when to get in the water.

That is the Kite & Wing Safari in Egypt: a week on board a yacht cruising the islands of the Red Sea off Hurghada, stopping every day at the best spot for the wind forecast. Lagoons with shallow, flat water where you learn to kitesurf from scratch with your feet touching the bottom, huge open spaces where experienced riders try new tricks in complete safety, downwinders from one island to the next.

And then everything else: morning yoga, snorkelling on the coral reef, sunsets with a drink in your hand, dinners under the stars, music and parties on deck. You leave as strangers and come home as family. Everyone who has lived it says the same thing: some places you visit, others stay with you.

Kite & Wing Safari in Egypt – Hurghada - Egypt - Red Sea — 8 days / 7 nights

Why choose it

A trip for total beginners and for riders who want to fly higher

Learn from scratch

Shallow, flat lagoons: you can stand, there are no waves and the wind is steady. The best place for your first rides.

Progress safely

Two sessions a day, instructors watching you and video coaching in the evening: land the tricks you have been putting off for months.

A yacht as your home

A different spot every day, chosen on the wind forecast. Double cabins with air conditioning and en-suite bathroom.

A rescue boat and beach boys who help you pump up, launch and land your kite.

Every morning you wake up somewhere new

The yacht is your floating home. While you have breakfast, the instructors study the forecast and pick the spot of the day: Tawila, Geisum, Abu Minqar, Ashrafi. We drop anchor off deserted islands, powder-white sand and water with colours so unreal that more than once we looked at each other speechless: are we really in Egypt?

No minibus transfers, no crowded beaches: just the sound of the sea, the wind picking up and the urge to get in the water.

Never kitesurfed? This is where you learn

It is the question we are asked most, and the answer is yes. The Red Sea lagoons have shallow, flat water for hundreds of metres: you can stand, there are no waves to bother you and the wind is steady. These are ideal conditions to get to grips with the kite, fall without fear and get straight back up.

With the beginner course with unlimited hours you learn step by step with our instructors and, once the course is over, you keep riding with rental gear. And when your board glides for the very first time, they hear the scream on the next island.

The best kitesurfing experience ever! You arrive as strangers and leave with 20 new friends. Spectacular kitesurf spots, breathtaking scenery and an incredible atmosphere. An unforgettable experience that stays with you long after you get home. Blue Tribe is much more than just a kitesurf safari!

Already riding? Raise the bar, safely

Mirror-flat water, steady wind and endless space: for riders who already know the kite, the safari is a progression booster. The jump you have been putting off for months, transitions, your first tricks, downwinders from island to island.

Two sessions a day, instructors who watch and correct you, video coaching in the evening to review every move. With the rescue boat always close by you dare more, because you know someone is watching over you. You go home riding at a different level.

Sunsets that stop time

Then comes that moment. The wind drops, the sun sinks towards the horizon and the sky lights up in colours impossible to describe. Sitting on deck, drink in hand, tired and happy after a day on the water: these are the moments you wish you could freeze.

After dinner the deck turns into a party: DJ sets, music and dancing under a sky full of stars. In October the energy was so contagious that guests from other yachts came on board to dance with us.

Strangers when you leave, family when you return

The sea, the wind, the islands: everything is perfect. And yet, when you think back to the safari, the first thing you remember is the people. Different languages understood with a glance, laughter around the table, cheering for someone's first ride, the hugs on the last night.

Many people come on their own, and it is the best way to come. We bring our heart, our passion and the Blue Tribe experience; you bring your energy. The rest just happens and cannot be explained: it has to be lived.
