Women in Action - Kitecamp Seahorse Bay
At our "Women in Action" Kitecamp in the Kiteclub Seahorse Bay, every kiter receives full attention and personalized assistance to ensure optimal progress in their kite skills. Thanks to the vast flat water area and consistent wind direction, the spot is perfect for making significant advances. The lagoon offers ample space as the number of students and storage places is limited.
You’ll stay at the Ibi & Friends Kiteclub, just 200 meters from the kite beach – a true "bed-to-board" experience is guaranteed! The nearby lagoon features a partially sandy bottom and a steady side-onshore north wind, creating ideal conditions for unforgettable kite sessions. However, due to the presence of shells and stones in the water, we recommend wearing neoprene shoes.
This year, we’ve decided to host the Kitecamp in September, as the Red Sea remains pleasantly warm and the chances of strong winds are significantly higher compared to November. You can look forward to perfect training conditions!
Experienced kitesurfers can enjoy kiting in the deeper areas of the spot, unaffected by tides.
By the way, we also welcome companions who might not want (or can´t) participate in the event itself; we are happy to offer our regular kite packages upon request.

Five good reasons for the kitecamp in Egypt
1. In this kite camp you get the most intensive and individual help, so that you have even more fun on the water. You train with like-minded people, i.e. in the respective groups with women who have similar kitesurfing skills and goals.
2. You get connected to the group from the beginning, everyone arrives at the same time and you are immediately integrated into the new kite community. We already meet on the day of arrival at dinner, get to know each other and start with a great group dynamic.
3. The Women in Action Kitecamp in Egypt, is a kite camp for women only, so you feel as comfortable as possible in the learning environment.
4. At the Kiteclub Seahorse Bay there are only max. 20 guests at a time, only kitesurfers and at the spot we have limited the maximum number of kiters to 25. No overcrowded spot, but individual attention and a family atmosphere.
5. Our instructors Steffi and Kiki know the spot inside out. Steffi has spent many holidays here herself and has also worked as a kite instructor. Kiki learned to kitesurf in Seahorse Bay, knows every corner in the water and on the beach, but also in the kite club and in the whole area. Anything you want to know, Kiki knows.
