Accommodatie
Onboard of the M/V Kite Adventure, you live in a floating hotel – simple and comfortable in a familiar atmosphere. Each of the 8 twin bed and 2 double bed cabins is set functional and has its own shower and toilet. Fan and storage space are standard.
The boat goes back to the marina in the evening, so overnight guests will have the opportunity to dine at one of the surrounding restaurants or attend one of the weekly party events at Safaga.
All cabins are private and all rates are for 1 person. If you would like to share your cabin with a second person, please let Tornado Surf Center know. A reduced rate is available for two people sharing the same cabin.
The cabins
Private cabin: "Lower Deck"
The classic double rooms on the lower deck are equipped with two single beds or a double bed. This room has its own bathroom with shower (hot / cold) and WC. Air conditioning.
The rooms are not luxurious, but comfortable enough to have a good sleep and to refresh yourself.
Private cabin: "Upper Deck" - Sea View
On the two double cabins on the upper deck you can enjoy a breathtaking views through the large windows paired with two single beds. Of course with an en-suite bathroom with shower (hot / cold) and toilet, air conditioning, and storage for your personal belongings. A few steps down the stairs and you can grab your kite or wing and jump over the platform into the water.
Programma
The boat is a mobile kite and wing station and will take you out every day to the kite spot. Soma Bay, Tornado Surf Center's operational spot, offers a lot of wind and warm temperatures all year round. You will spend the whole day with kiters and wingfoilers - far away from the tourist hustle and bustle of the big hotel complexes. Tornado Surf Center will anchor at the edge of a huge lagoon where you can jump straight into the water and start kitesurfing or wingfoiling.
During this camp, your IKO-certified instructor shows you how to fly a kite, how to do body-dragging, and finally, how to get on the board. In the evening, the Kite Adventure returns to the jetty in front of Tornado Surf Center Center in Safaga. You might enjoy what the small town has to offer or chill with the other guests on the boat.

Locatie
Soma Bay is located 50 kilometers south of Hurghada and is a location of numerous kitesurfing, windsurfing, and diving centers. The contrast between the turquoise blue sea and the barren desert landscape makes this area an impressive backdrop.
The pleasant temperatures and the steady winds make Soma Bay a perfect spot for kite- / wing- and windsurfing all year round. The wind is usually around 1-2 Bft stronger than in Hurghada, because of the thermal effect from the desert; especially from April to October, the wind is very steady and constant.
This bay has an area of several square kilometers and offers beautiful scenery and perfect conditions for water sports.
Tornado Surf runs with the boat a mobile kite and wing station and a school – with the hotspot in the middle of Soma Bay. The platform on the boat for launching / landing saves your long walks to the beach and even less pumping the kite / wing in the sand.
In the city of Safaga, you will get an impression of the colorful life of an Egyptian fishing village, and you can easily get in touch with the very friendly locals. Here is one of the oldest ports of the Red Sea, Port Safaga. It was established already under the Egyptian Pharaoh Sahure about 4,000 years ago, as a base for trade and exploration in the Red Sea.
Today, it is the main base for the Egyptian Navy for patrols in the Southeast of Egypt. It also serves as a starting point for pilgrimages to Mecca, the export of aluminum, and the import of wheat. Accordingly, the city is dominated by an industrial complex and cargo district.
Outside of the hotels and resorts, the village has few further attractions to offer to the tourists. Along the coastline of Safaga, there are many inner and outer reefs that are very popular for divers and snorkelers.
