El Tur, Egypt

El Tur is a popular windsurfing destination on the Red sea that offers various conditions for all levels of windsurfers – from the safe flat water bay, suitable for all levels of windsurfing courses to modest waves outside the bay. Depending on the time of the year we windsurf in board shorts (summer and early autumn), neoprene suits are used in the winter months. The happening is focused on the beach, around the only hotel and windsurf centre. The city of El Tur is pure and authentic in many ways, creating a field to explore for all those windsurfing lovers, that simply enjoy the sport and don't miss any nightlife.

In El Tur we will organize BEGINNERINTERMEDIATEADVANCED and FREESTYLE windsurf courses. 

Due to some logistical problems, the organization of camps in El Tur is impossible until further notice. We are working on possibly returning to one of our favorite destinations again soon.

Any other questions? The email will be the right choice. 

 

 

Windsurf center:

Windsurf centre Dacha is mostly equipped with Hot Sails Maui and North Sails sails, mostly on RDM masts of Slovenian mast producer Caas. Windsurf centre is equipped with Fanatic boards. Windsurf centre is set only 5 meters away from water, making it an easy job for you to carry your windsurf equipment. As most of the windsurfing centres in Egypt, this one as well offers a cosy chill out corner, where you are more than welcome to make yourself a cup of coffee or tea or where you can watch a windsurfing movie while waiting for your hands to relax a bit before your next session.

Accommodation:

We are accommodated in Moses Bay hotel, that is situated just next to the sea. Majority of the rooms was recently renewed in a simple but cute and colourful windsurfing style. The rooms are simple, featuring an air-condition, TV (some) and a small fridge. All of the rooms have a balcony/terrace with a sea view. If you are addicted to beach life, you can go for a bungalow - small wooden cottages that are built directly on the sandy beach. Bungalows are equipped with a ceiling fan and small fridge. Bungalows have joint toilets and showers and were built as a budget option of your stay. Breakfast and dinner are self-service and organized in the dining room which is in the main building, just next to the reception. Internet connection (WiFi) is available in the hotel's lobby.

Food:

Accommodation comes with half board with a self-service buffet filled up with a variety of dishes. Food is good, always offered with a combination of fish and meat and there is always plenty of vegetables available, so - vegetarians are more than welcome. Just next to the windsurfing centre there is a Beach bar, where you can grab a snack (pizza or sandwich) in the afternoon. In the evenings we use Beach bar for video analysis and parties ;)

What's going on?:

We start our mornings in El Turu with some yoga or morning stretching, we continue it with windsurf courses and end in the evening with the video analysis. In case of no wind, we go for a SUP or snorkelling trips, or we take a hike on the closest mountain to enjoy a perfect sunset. Party? El Tur is notorious for its local “beach parties”: ).

 

 

 

Dahab, Egypt

Dahab is a popular windsurfing destination on the Red Sea, offering a variety of conditions for all skill levels - from a safe bay with perfectly flat water, suitable for beginners and all other windsurfing courses, to moderate waves outside the bay. Depending on the season, we windsurf in swimsuits (summer and early fall) and wetsuits (winter). There are several windsurf centers in the lagoon, and hotels are located behind them.

In Dahab we organize BEGINNERINTERMEDIATEADVANCED and FREESTYLE windsurf courses.

Next camp will be organised in October. Registrations will be open soon.

Sidi Kaouki, Morocco

Sidi Kaouki is an authentic Moroccan dream wave spot for wave lovers that welcomes enthusiastic windsurfers, kiters, surfers and SUP experts. The waves can get up to 3 m high and break on a safe, long sandy beach. We work with a smaller group (max 20 PAX), consistent water starting is required. The speciality of the camp: windsurf safari. If the conditions in Sidi Kaouki are not optimal, we take a trailer filled up with windsurfing gear and off we go - exploring other windsurf spots that we find nearby (Essaouira, Taginza, Moulay).

Viana do Castelo, Portugal

The Cabedelo beach in the region of Viana do Castelo in Portugal has a worldwide reputation as one of the best windsurfing spots in the world. The town is located on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean and is known for the constant winds that blow throughout the year. The main season lasts from the end of April to the end of September, when the typical, reliable and constant wind "Nortada" blows, which has a thermodynamic effect. Due to its characteristics, the Cabedelo beach is an excellent starting point for all levels of windsurfing skills. Besides the ocean, there is a spot on the nearby Lima river, which is an excellent point for beginners or those who want to practice their skills in a more protected environment. In case of weaker winds, the spot offers countless other options that will keep you on the water in any case: from surfing on waves, SUPing, experiences in the wake park, experiences in wing foiling - we will make sure that these holidays are a true "waterman" experience.

The second accommodation option is the Itaca surf house, located in close proximity to the FeelViana hotel and windsurf center, forests, and the sea, on Cabedelo beach. Itaca offers 5 apartments for 3-5 people, each fully equipped (kitchen, living room, bathroom), and just a few steps away from excellent windsurfing or surfing conditions.

What's going on?:

As with every Quiksilver windsurfing school camp, the days will consist of windsurfing lessons, morning warm-ups or afternoon stretches, and video analysis. What sets the experience in Portugal apart from other camps is the true "waterman/waterwoman" experience - if the wind is not in our favor, we have all water toys available - from surfboards (for catching the first waves), SUP (an unforgettable trip up the river), wing-foil, etc. And if anyone truly doesn't feel like being on the water, we can organize a bike tour to nearby points of interest.

Praia do Maceiò, Brazil

Praia do Maceio is a small Brazilian fisherman village a bit more north of famous Jericoacoara. Long beach, amazing sunsets, constant wind, warm water and the combination of flatwater and modest waves convince more and more windsurfers to spend their winter here. Maceio is relatively unknown windsurf spot, that will excite all windsurfers that might be missing some waves in Icaraizinho, or find Jericoacoara to busy and crowded. We have first travelled to Maceio two years ago, curious to see the perfect but isolated windsurf spot. Our last experiences in Maceio were amazing, and we are looking forward to making it again as soon as possible. 

Meanwhile, if you wanna know more, don't hesitate to write on info@quiksilverwindsurfschool.com.

RRD boards and sails available.

Maceio is a small fisherman village, still untouched by mass tourism. If you have this in mind, you will learn to appreciate the small, but a pristine offer of a few small local restaurants, mostly offering fresh seafood and local Brazilian cuisine. There are two small shops in the village as well, and the streets of Maceio are visited with a truck of fresh fruit and vegetables several times per week. 

What's going on?:

We start our mornings in Brazil with a morning exercise on the perfectly cut grass next to the pool of our pousada. We continue with windsurfing, windsurfing and windsurfing till the sunset. We finish the day with video analysis, happy and tired. :)

Perna, Pelješac, Croatia

Pelješac is one of the well-known Croatian windsurf destinations. The channel between Pelješac and Korčula island enhances the afternoon wind Maestral, that attracts hundreds of windsurfers and kitesurfers. Mornings with the light breeze are suitable for beginners in windsurfing or those that love morning SUP trips. Stronger winds in the afternoon create the perfect condition for better windsurfers, however, bigger sails or foil is needed for maximum happiness. Once you get to Pelješac, there are endless possibilities for accommodation - from camping to mobile homes directly on the beach, or apartments and hotels nearby. 

In Pelješac we organise BEGINNER and INTERMEDIATE windsurf courses and windsurf courses for KIDS
For those who fancy stronger winds, we focus on lessons with bigger sails and FOIL experience. 

Currently, Pelješac is not on our schedule, but maybe we will return there in the following years.

Windsurf centre Surf Perna has already been working for 15 years. In the upcoming season, however, the station is going to be renewed and will include an enlarged windsurfing centre as well as a cosy chill-out area, a bar and a surf shop. The only official Fanatic and Duotone windsurf centre in Croatia is only 10 meters away from the sea and is equipped with the latest windsurf equipment for all levels of windsurfers. They also offer a large number of SUP boards and rent-a-bike service (classic or e-bikes). Besides windsurfing, they will pamper you with various other activities - from guided SUP trips, yoga lessons or sightseeing trips.

In camping Perna, just a few minutes walk from the windsurfing centre, we can arrange your stay in simple mobile homes. You can choose among smaller or bigger ones, those in the first row to the sea or those, a bit more inside the camp. Mobile homes can accommodate  4 + 2 people in two separate bedrooms and a living room. All mobile homes are equipped with an air-condition and sat TV and have a nice wooden terrace and own parking space.

 

Food:

All mobile homes have fully equipped kitchen, however, if you don't fancy cooking, there are many options available - from beach bar Stranj, that offer good pizza and variations of simple meals to various restaurants just a few hundred meters away from the camp.

 

What's going on?:

Besides windsurfing, stand-up paddling, yoga and cycling, the place offers other activities as well - every morning and evening there is a boat that can take you from the camp to the island Korčula, where you can enjoy in exploring the old town, or just go out for a nice seafood dinner. If you are more of a party animal, there are various places to go wild in Korčula while evenings and nights on Pelješac get vivid in popular bars K2 and  Čiringito in Viganj or  Hookah Bar in Orebić.
