A word about
DAHAB BOARDER CENTER
Dahab Boarder Center is an ideal sandy kite spot featuring shallow areas and larger, deeper windsurfing lagoons that offer flat, clear water conditions. This amazing location is also perfect for practicing wingfoiling. Protected from the open sea by a long, narrow sandbank, Dahab is suited for every level from beginners to advanced.
The Dahab Boarder Center for windsurfing, kitesurfing, and wingfoiling is located right in front of the spot. The wind is predominantly offshore, and coral reefs are clearly marked and safely distanced from riders. Beyond the reefs, there’s an accessible wave zone for those looking for a more thrilling experience. Located within a secure hotel zone, this kite spot is just half a kilometer from a safe and picturesque town, making it a perfect destination for water sports enthusiasts.
BEST PERIODS
June and September for the best wind.
July and August bring strong morning winds, warm water, hot dry air, and mango season.
Early May, Christmas, and New Year are perfect for a festive atmosphere with new friends and good wind.
WIND
North-east offshore wind most of the year, with occasional south onshore wind in winter. Typically 20 knots, stronger in the morning, lighter in the afternoon. In summer, winds can reach 24-32 knots all day, every day
WAVES
Waves are behind the reefs with no shore break, accessible independently but only for advanced riders
