All cabins can host 2 people and have separate beds, private toilet with shower and air-conditioning. This boat comes with a his own crew; a captain with his team of sailors, a chef, and of course our team from Sick Dog & Kite Tribe. This is a kitesurfing adventure, it means a lot of kitesurfing.
KITE CRUISE DAY BY DAY
DAY 1 – This is your arrival day: you will arrive at the airport and one of our team will meet you and with our taxi or minibus take you to the boat. On board you will go to your cabin and meet the rest of the team and all the guests that have already arrived. We will have our first dinner on the boat, and maybe explore the town of Hurghada if we have enough energy. We will be sleeping in the Marina.
DAY 2 – The yacht will depart as early as possible to head to the first kite spot of this trip: Tawila Island. This is probably the best place in the Red Sea to kite, a beautiful sandy lagoon with flat water, blessed with constant and stable wind – the perfect place to improve your skills, at any level. We will be kitesurfing before lunch and after lunch, and we will be sleeping in Tawila (on the boat obviously).
DAY 3 – We will be kiting all day, with an early morning session before breakfast at 6:30am, to finish at sunset. It is also possible to dive in most spots, so during this trip we will mix activities, depending on the wind forecast.
DAY 4 – We will be chilling in the early morning and head to a new spot during breakfast, Geisum island. We will be kiting and sleeping in Geisum.
DAY 5 – Another early start in Geisum, to kite here all day.
DAY 6 – Downwinder! Not the hardest of the downwinder, we will head from Geisum to Tawila in the early morning. It’s a 2h ride, so be prepared! Once arrived in Tawila, we will be kiting there all day long, and sleep again in Tawila.
DAY 7 – Time to head back to the marina, but not before a long session till 2pm! After kiting, we will head back to El Gouna and if we have enough energy, we will head to El Gouna for some drinks and dinner. Then we will be back on the boat for our last night on board.
DAY 8 – Time to say goodbye to the boat! We will take our bus and head to the airport or to a hotel of your choice, to continue your holidays.
