The spot in Ras Sudr
Seldom has a kitesurfing spot made such a convincing impression on us right from the start as Ras Sudr in Egypt -
Ras Sudr is an excellent venue offering ideal conditions for
all skills of Kitesurfers. The large sandy beach close to the Skyriders kitesurfing centre provides nearly unlimited space
for first exercises with the kite as for launching. The shallow water area stretching almost 100 metres and the sideshore
wind will allow every kitesurfer to make extremely fast
progress.

So, Ras Sudr offers ideal conditions for all kitesurfer and is
an perfect spot for tuition.

The spacious expanse of the spot ensures that kitesurfers
and windsurfers will not get in each other's way because
there are two different areas for each sport. The further
windward you move, the more the beach expands. More advanced kitesurfers can sail a few hundred metres further
on to a number of lagoons, which provide ideal conditions for practising, depending on the tide. You should only surf here
in groups and inform the kitesurfing center in advance.

In the water there are no reefs, corals or shallows. Only
beautiful and friendly dolphins swimming with you while you
are sailing and cruising along in magnificent turquoise water. 

All this makes Ras Sudr to a very safe kitesurfing Spot

Wind and waves
The main wind direction is sideshore from the right and the
wind is very steady. The average wind force is 4 to 6 bft,
all year round, and there is often a light breeze in the
mornings, creating ideal conditions for kitesurf novices.

The center
Skyriders is located directly on the beach of the Ramada
Ras Sudr Hotel. The spacious building also houses a Club
Mistral windsurfing center. The kitesurfing center has been equipped with North Kiteboarding gear. The distance from
the center to the water is only about 100 metres, but the
best kitesurfing spot is located about 300 metres further windward. Here, the beach is even wider, and small lagoons
form during low tide, offering ideal conditions for exercising kitesurfing.

The Skyriders kitesurfing centre offers a cosy chill-out corner, where kitesurfers, can spend time relaxing after a session on
the water. There is a compressor at the center for inflating
kites and you will also receive assistance in setting up your kitesurfing gear. The center is fully equiped, with all sizes of boards and kites, always from the current North Kiteboarding range.
