Dahab

10. Windsurfing in Dahab

Dahab is situated in the wind chanel of the Gulf of Aqaba. Because of pressure differences between the hot dessert and the sea, the wind is blowing at almost 300 days a year at 4 Bft. and above, providing perfect conditions for windsurfing.
In summer when temperature raises up to 40 degress this spot turns into a high wind area(7 bft+) with constant wind all day and night. August and September are the best month for Dahab windsurfing, unless you're not afraid of the hot sun. In the morning the wind blows a little offshore but in the afternoon it turns to sideshore from the left.
