For the past few years in Dahab, we have been hosted by the Vetratoria Windsurf Center. The center is fully equipped with RRD sails and boards, and just before the start of the 2026 season, they updated their fleet with brand-new boards. They operate several stations in the bay, including a dedicated WING center, in case you’d like to try a new sport on lighter wind days. The windsurf centre is located less than 10 meters from the water. Like most centres in Egypt, it offers a cozy chill-out area, hot showers, toilets, free Wi-Fi, and a flawless rescue service in case of exhaustion or any issues on the water. Not to mention the exceptional hospitality of their staff! Nearby, you'll also find a beach bar, a swimming pool, and a sandy beach perfect for swimming. Depending on the season, we windsurf in swimwear (summer and early autumn) or wetsuits (winter and spring).
Right in front of the centre, the spot is perfect for beginners, while the safe lagoon serves as an excellent training ground for intermediate courses. 'Speedy' is a spot that will thrill advanced windsurfers, while 'Baby Bay' delights freestylers with its perfectly flat water.
Wind statistic in spring and autumn: 60-70% of windy days // Force: Usually ranging from 15 to 25 knots (stronger in the mornings) // Vibe: Versatile conditions—expect to use anything from 4.2 to 6.5 m2 sails.
We can offer you accommodation in the simple 3-star hotel Hotel Ganet Sinai, located in the Dahab lagoon, right on the beach. Although it features a swimming pool, we rarely use it given the proximity of the sea. Free Wi-Fi is available in common areas and most rooms (it’s a bit slow, but it works). The hotel is surrounded by lush gardens, and rooms feature a balcony or terrace with views of the garden, the pool, or the Gulf of Aqaba. The accommodation is simple and functional, providing everything you need for a relaxed and carefree windsurfing holiday.
Our package includes half-board, with delicious buffet breakfasts and dinners at Hotel Ganet Sinai. A wide variety of dishes is available - ranging from meat and fish to an abundance of fresh vegetables, ensuring that vegetarians will also have plenty of options. The food is of high quality and safe, so you can enjoy fresh fruit and salads without any worries. During the day, you can grab snacks and refreshing drinks at one of the beach bars while enjoying the laid-back seaside atmosphere.
Please note: While we highly recommend staying with the group at Ganet Sinai for the best social experience, you are also welcome to arrange your own accommodation independently if you prefer.
Due to better wind conditions in the morning, mornings in Dahab are dedicated to windsurfing courses. During our 10-day camps, we alternate on-water sessions with dedicated filming days, while our evenings are reserved for video analysis - the secret to your fast progress. To keep you flexible and recovered, we wind down before dinner with a session of yoga and stretching.
If the wind takes a break, the adventure continues. You can grab a SUP, try wing foiling, or go snorkelling in the crystal-clear sea. For those who love to explore, we can organise jeep safaris across the desert to the stunning White and Red Canyons. These breathtaking natural wonders, carved by nature over millennia, will captivate you with their massive rock formations, vibrant colours, and the serene silence of the desert.
A short stroll or a quick taxi ride brings you into the heart of Dahab. It’s the perfect place to lose yourself in the authentic Arabian bustle of local markets, colorful shops, and seaside bars. Want even more? We can help you arrange guided snorkeling boat trips, authentic Bedouin dinners under the stars or extended desert exploration.
GOOD TO KNOW: For travel to Egypt, your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from your date of departure.
