Beach and Tide Conditions
Recommended
tide for kitesurfing is
High Tide,Coming Tide,Falling Tide
.
Sultana Beach Resort, Egypt is a
Shallow, Flat and Chop spot.
The
launching/landing area
is reported to be of
Small size.
The lagoon in front of Sultana Hotel is perfectly nice for teaching beginners. Shallow area is 300 meters wide and 400 meters long when normal NNW direction is blowing.
The first 150m are flat and shallow depending on the tide. Tidal range is about 1m at the most. The lagoon sometimes even runs dry. There are areas of corals and water plant which are easy to see. Besides from very low tide you can always kite above them. After the 150m the water gets deep and a bit wavy if the wind is strong. Somewhere are some reefs but not dangerous. The two shallow reefs are marked by two flags. This is the entry area to the deep water for the windsurfers. About a 1km from the coast is another shallow reef area. Shoes are a good idea because of some pointed shells.
