“Don’t hesitate; just book a week or two when the dates come out. They will sell out fast and for a reason. You will meet the most amazing people; both crew and guests. Jonathan and Islam have built an incredible venture supported by the most professional and kindest team I have ever encountered. There is no other kite safari that even come close to the quality that Dragonfly delivers. it is by far the most luxurious, breathtaking, stress-free kite trip you are likely to ever take.” — guest review on Tripadvisor, September 2023
Kite Safari Life—A week of luxury on the Red Sea that you’ll never forget!
Your Egypt kite safari vacation starts the moment the plane lands. We pick you up from the Hurghada airport and within 15 minutes you’ll be on our yacht, beer in hand, while we bring your bags onboard. When you’re ready, we will escort you to your deluxe air-conditioned cabin, complete with private shower and toilet. The first night is spent in the marina, allowing everyone to smoothly arrive and get settled in before the kite safari launches. Our chef will cook us up a delicious dinner, and then it’s drinks on the deck in the warm evening breeze as everyone gets to know each other before we all call it a night and get ready for our first day of kiting. After a quick sail north for two to three hours we arrive at the islands and our first kite spot—from that point on, it’s eat-sleep-kite-repeat at some the best kitesurfing spots in the world.
After breakfast each morning, we quickly transport you via support boat to the kite spot where all of your gear will already be pumped and rigged by our team—within minutes you’ll be on the water, kiting in your private paradise of glassy turquoise water. The locations are all sand-bottomed and shallow—a perfect laboratory for pushing boundaries, be it learning to kite or fine-tuning your bag of tricks. Our support zodiac and beach staff are of course at the ready to assist with launching, landing, or if anything goes awry out on the water.
After a return to the yacht for lunch, you can head back out to kite until sunset or just relax on the yacht—the schedule for the day is yours to make. Also included in your safari is free use of our SUP and snorkel equipment, so if the wind dips down or you want a change of pace you can still get out on the water.
That evening, after a sumptuous dinner, as everyone relaxes on deck and recounts the day’s epic adventure, we check the forecast and make plans for the next day’s destination. Depending on the distance and forecast, we will either sail that night or quickly cover it in the early morning. Either way, we will handle everything—all you have to do is eat-sleep-kite-repeat!
The last night is spent onboard the yacht back in Hurghada, giving everyone a chance to wash and pack their kite gear. Then in the morning it’s one final breakfast before we take everyone to the airport or arrange a day of kiting in El Gouna or sightseeing in Hurghada before the flights home. It’ll be an incredible week of non-stop kiting, luxury, adventure, and fun—a week that you’ll remember for long after you’ve arrived home!
