Destination Marsa Alam - Kitesurfing in Marsa Alam
When we refer to the town of ‘Marsa Alam’, we actually mean an extensive coastal
strip north and south of this town, covering an area of over 130 km. Here, we predominantly
find a fringing reef and it is difficult to come across sheltered bays with a sandy
bottom.
The huge bay of El Nabaa, around 20 km from Marsa Alam, offers these characteristics
and especially advanced kiters will have a lot of fun starting right from the beach.
El Nabaa has two different designated spots for kitesurfing: The ‘Giant Bay’ is
sheltered from higher waves thanks to the offshore ‘Potato Reef’ and pros might
ride behind it to find some nice waves for their freestyle jumps. The Giant Bay
is ideal for kiters who have already mastered the water start, relaunch and different
manoeuvres.
Beginners and kiters who wish to perfect some more complicated techniques, can also
use the ‘Baby Bay’, a little to the south (transfer provided), where shallow, crystal
clear waters and super flat surface conditions will make sure that you will master
the first moves.
