KITESURFING CRUISE SCHEDULE

ARRIVAL AT HURGHADA AIRPORT, EGYPT

After being welcomed at Hurghada airport you will be transferred to the Rosinante Boat moored just 5 minutes away at Hurghada’s new marina. Our crew will welcome you and give you all the advice you’ll need for the coming week. In the event of an early arrival on Friday you can ride with our team at some of the local spots and overnight in a hotel (on request).

SUNDAY – DAY 1

Depart to the north of the Red Sea for 6 days of cruising. After a 3 hours trip we reach our first spot for a warm up session. A huge lagoon with crystal clean and shallow water. Here the adventure begins. Jump the sand bar or freestyle on glass flat water. Secluded beach with a great atmosphere, far away from the crowded coasts and cities.

DAY 2

We leave the lagoon early and make way to our next area. We will discover an authentic coralline’s island with several lagoons and flat water close to the shore. A decent swell also builds up outside the coral reef. During your cruise you will surely come across many different types of wildlife. After the sunset session our crew may teach you how to catch Calamari! As we wait for our meal to be prepared you can check out the videos and pictures from the day’s session on our screens.

DAY 3

Time to make way to our ultimate extreme spot! During the Northern most part of our safari we’ll travel between the islands to be with the perfect side shore wind.
Why not take a look under your board? The water here is so clear that you’ll easily see the dolphins as they glide through the water. A real unspoilt area and a great place to take advantage of our kayaks and snorkeling equipment to explore the colorful coral below the surface. With no man made light pollution the stars here are bright and plentiful. Enjoy this spectacle with drinks on the deck.

DAY 4

After another fantastic breakfast we are ready for a giant 6 km downwind ride to our next spot! The boat and our rescue team will follow us to give us that extra aspect of safety. Starting with flat water, we’ll head outside to catch some serious swell. It’s time to try some big carving and high jumps. We’ll finish the day’s session back on the second day spot. This is a great chance to explore the lagoons you missed last time as the area is very large.

DAY 5

Early morning departure to our final spot. An inland lagoon. This amazing area gives you the option to kite on flat water or head out to sea to catch some waves.
After the session it’s party time. Our crew will be setting up the barbecue on the beach to celebrate our last night at sea. During full moon it’s a great opportunity for some night kiting!

FRIDAY, DAY 6

Early morning ride on the inland lagoon. A good chance for a final picture session. We finish kiting around midday and enjoy a hearty lunch before heading back to Hurghada.
Gear will be cleaned and packed at the marina. Still have energy for more fun? We’ll head out for a night in one of the areas most popular beach nightclubs.
