By far the best kite center in Soma Bay / Safaga, as the boat is anchoring right at the windiest and most beautiful spot. The staff is very friendly and the quality of the experience is excellent. I recommend it to any beginner or freerider kiter. (...translated by Google)

Super great water sports center. Family atmosphere, professional team, great equipment... I spent a brilliant week here with lots of wind, sun and kiting. :-) (...traslated by Google)
We had a great time with great instructors and just nice people. The lessons were super structured and the group wasn't too big. We learned everything step by step, so that I even went on the board during my first week of kite vacation... (...translated by Google)
Great team, friendly, attentive and warm. Whether it's the quality of the tuition, the equipment or the food on the boat, everything is top notch. The support of supervised or freeriders is efficient and always helpful. (...translated by Google)Kitesurfing

friendly and family welcome, professionalism in managing the kite school and storage, great food ... Felix and Sabine and all the staff are exceptional ... after so many years I always come back willingly ... I have already booked for March 2020
In summary for anyone thinking about booking with Tornado
-this is my third trip with them
-the spot where you ride is excellent, very quiet but good wind
-the service they offer is unique, truly unique, meaning you get on the water very quickly
They either set the kite and lines up quickly on the boat, you jump in the water with your bar, swim 10 metres if that to the shallows, launch and you’re off, you can be riding in under 5 minutes. read more
The whole team around Sabine and Felix at Tornado is a blast. We went to Egypt for the 2nd time as a group of three friends. I already learnt kiting the previous year with Hamada and my two friends started kiting this year. We all had a wonderful time, not only because of the kiting (for which Tornado offers great conditions) but also because of the positive atmosphere and good food/drinks we enjoyed on the boat. Definitely go here when you travel to Soma Bay/Safaga and try it out!
Tornado Surf have a really nice spot if you wanna hang out when there is no wind.They have a perfect place in the Soma Bay lagoon also for beginners and for freeriders .The staff is really nice and they will help you with everything.Rescue service is just perfect so you can kite in the safest conditions .This is the second time for me here and will return for sure.
We had an epic time with Tornado Surf crew. We have spent 4 days on the boat kitesurfing, snorkeling & stand-up paddling. Tornado management & crew went out of their way to ensure we had the time of our life. They have been more than generous on all fronts. The food was great & service was simply epic. Highly recommended.Tornado Surf Boat

Our spot
Wind statistics
Spot description
Soma Bay not only offers a lot of wind and warm temperatures all year round but it is also one of the most beautiful kite spots on the Red Sea. The area is suitable for all skill levels: beginners will find ideal conditions for learning in the approx. 2 km² large lagoon, which is mostly knee to waist deep. Advanced riders, whether freeriders or freestylers, can enjoy endless space in the turquoise waters of Soma Bay, regardless of the tides. The surface is mostly flat to choppy. In the morning, the wind usually starts off-shore from the north-west – often around 5 to 10 knots stronger than the wind forecast predicts. At noon the wind turns to "sideshore" from the north. Depending on the time of year, the wind slowly dies down in the afternoon, but can also blow through until just before sunset.
