El Gouna
El Gouna is a small town by the Red Sea that was established in 1989. EL Gouna originally started with a couple of hotels, and not much to do. I remember I used to dread going there as a kid! Over the past decade, El Gouna has thrived into one of the cosiest and most humble towns you will ever…
Hamata
Hamata is a kitesurf playground with crystal-clear water, a huge waist deep area for beginners and lots of space for the advanced ones to practice new tricks.

Ras Sudr
For starters, I would like to clarify that geographically Ras Sudr is in Asia, but as it is part of Egypt and you would probably fly to Cairo airport, I've decided to list it in Africa! Ras Sudr is located in Sinai, one of the most magical parts of this world, with a lot of history. As a kite location,…
