El Gouna Duotone Pro Kitecenter kitesurf spot

Egypt · Red Sea Governorate

Spot currently openBeginner levelAltitude 1 m 27.42 | 33.67

Overview

Spot accessible to all levels with the Duotone pro center which allows you to take lessons and rent equipment or a locker. 

The Casa Cook hotel is located directly on the spot.

It's possible to ride in the lagoon or go out to the sea. The advantage is that you can navigate even at low tide (after walking a bit, as in the video ;-) ).

You can touch the bottom in the relatively large lagoon, which makes it ideal for beginners.
