Spread across islands that are interlinked by lagoons, along 10 km of beachfront, dotted with hotels. There is a nice marina area, making a home for some very luxury vessels, with a hand full of cafes and restaurants overlooking the water. El Gouna is a great location for families, or single traveller, as the town boasts excellent services, a superb infrastructure, year-round sunshine and stunning beaches. The nearby Hurghada International Airport has a wide number of flights to Europe in both directions.

Planet Kitesurf Holidays specialise in luxury tailor-made tours in Egypt, so please call and ask an Egypt kitesurf holiday expert about combining g a kitesurf stay in El Gouna with the historical town of Luxor on The Nile (or a Nile Cruise perhaps), together with one of the other Egypt kitesurf resorts we offer.

Whereas the temples of Luxor and the pyramids of Giza are highlights for travellers interested in Egyptian culture, Safaga is regarded as a dream spot for windsurfers and kiters.

Located about 50 kilometres south of Hurghada, this site offers not only numerous diving bases but is arguably one of the best windsurfing and kitesurfing spots in Egypt. Spacious sandy beaches extend around the deepsea port of Safaga, and one of our largest and best-equipped centres is located right on one of the most beautiful and widest beaches of them all!

The contrast between the azure and turquoise colours of the ocean and the barren desert landscape makes this area an impressive holiday setting and will turn your vacation into a wind-filled desert experience.

About 3.5 km away, Tobia Island awaits your visit. Here you will find a small sandy cay surrounded by turquoise water. Joining one of our famous surfing outings to this destination alone makes a vacation in Safaga worthwhile.

Soma Bay is a luxury holidays resort on the Red Sea Coast in Egypt at 45 kilometres south of Hurghada International Airport, the ten million square meters, self-contained community of Soma Bay is surrounded on all sides by the sea. It boasts year round sunshine and mild temperatures. Unique to Soma Bay are its white sandy beaches and panoramic views of desert mountains. The resort offers a combination of a high standard of hotels and a quiet relaxing location. The resort is split into 2 areas: Abu Soma (to the south of the main bay) and Soma Bay (the main resort on the north side). Soma Bay is a secluded spot for those wishing to just relax in luxury if not on the water. However, there are a variety of excursions, tours and day trips to the interior of this fascinating country. Egypt is probably the oldest civilization having emerged from the Nile Valley around 3,100 years ago. This Gift of the Nile, as described by Herodotus, boasts a longer recorded history than any other country on earth.

Hurghada in Egypt is a great value kitesurf holiday destination just a 5 hour flights from the UK and other main European departure airports. There are few kitesurf holiday resorts that offer such a long wind season, great value quality accommodation and world class kitesurfing, especially good for beginner and improvers. New for 2015 is our new superb Kitesurf and windsurf school based at the Mecure Hotel. This kitesurf centre in Hurghada is to be run by one of the most experienced and professional teams in Egypt. There will be all new equipment every year along with superb service and instruction.

Hurghada town itself is not the prettiest of places! There are a few really good beach bars, restaurant and clubs but it is important to find the good spots amongst the rest. The hotels in Hurghada are spread out over several kilometres of beach south of Hurghada town so whilst staying at your chosen resort you will not see any of the more undesirable areas. As with most of Egypt, there are really only a hand full of very good hotels and it is important to get the right advice; of course here at Planet Travel, we will make sure that you get the right resort along with our unbias expert advice.
