Onboard of the M/V Legends, you live in a floating hotel and anchor outside on the best spots the Red Sea has to offer. The rooms are simple and comfortable. Each of the 6 twin bed and 4 double bed cabins is set functional and has its own shower and toilet. Air conditioning, power sockets (230V), and storage space are standard.
The cabins
Double cabin: Single beds "Bow rooms“
The bow rooms are equipped with a toilet and shower (hot/cold), air conditioning, and enough storage space for all your belongings. The two single beds are arranged with a height difference, maybe almost like your bunk bed back then.
You'll find enough sockets to charge your mobile phone or laptop. The rooms are not luxurious, but comfortable enough to have a good sleep and to refresh yourself.
Double cabin: Single beds "Lower Deck"
The classic double rooms on the lower deck are equipped analogously to the bow rooms with two single beds; but without a difference in height. This room category also has its own bathroom with shower (hot / cold) and WC. Air conditioning and 230V sockets are standard.
Double cabin: Double bed "Upper Deck"
The four double cabins on the upper deck are a real treat on the Legends, with breathtaking views through the large windows paired with a double bed for cozy hours for two. 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.
Program
Individually tailored to the group's needs as well as regarding to wind and tide, Tornado Surf offers trips to different spots – including downwinders and BBQs. The experienced crew will accompany you on these first-class adventure trips as well as your IKO-certified instructor.
During this camp, you will work on your kitesurfing skills with an IKO certified instructor for a successful re-entry after a longer break or to gain more confidence to kite by yourself. Tornado Surf Center cannot wait to see you having fun kitesurfing!
Duration of lessons
- 1 student = 45 minutes
- 2 and more students sharing the instructor = 60 minutes
Sample schedule
- 07:00 Early bird session: If the boat stays at the spot overnight, you might enjoy the early morning hours on the water
- 08:00 Breakfast: Freshly squeezed fruit juice or an omelet or whatever your favorite breakfast eggs are? No problem for the chef, who is always ready to fulfill your requests at the breakfast buffet
- 09:00 Jump into the water again: Check the wind, grab your equipment, pump with the compressor, and off you go: Have fun!
- 12:30 Lunch time: What could be better after an extensive kite session than dedicating yourself to lunch? Help yourself to the lovingly prepared buffet with various dishes, freshly prepared every day in the onboard kitchen. Recharge your batteries for the next round in the water
- 13:00 Relax and chill: Use the time to relax on the sun deck or chill in the bean bags under the shade roof
- 14:00 Another session or exploring new spots: In the afternoon, Soma Bay awaits you in a beautiful light. The perfect conditions are given for another session and/or practicing a new trick. Should something go wrong, the rescue team always keeps an eye on the area and will pick you up with the Zodiac in case of a need. Depending on the group and conditions, with the M/V Legends, you might change the spot to explore Tobia Island or the South of Safaga and to do a downwinder
- 16:00 Sundowner session: Enjoy kitesurfing until sunset. The whole spot is yours

Location
The spots
Soma Bay
Soma Bay not only offers plenty of wind and warm temperatures all year round, but it's also one of the most beautiful spots on the Red Sea. The M/V Legends moors at a large, mostly knee- to hip-deep lagoon. Next to it, the freerider area offers endless space in the deep, turquoise-blue water. The surface is mostly flat to choppy.
Tobia Island
Southeast of Soma Bay lies the dreamlike Tobia Island. Doing a downwinder, you ride through all facets of blue water to the island's fine and sandy beach. Here, you can enjoy the sunset at its best, having nice cocktails or a BBQ.
