Safari Kite (or is Kite Safari?)

Safari Kite (or is Kite Safari?)

A Safari Kite is a week-long trip where with our yacht we explore different islands of the Red Sea. The term „Safari“ reflects the traveling part of the trip, where we see different spaces, like a classic African animal safari. „Kite“ is because this particular trip is obviosly meant for kitesurfing practitioners. Safari Kite or Kite Safari are actually the same idea – I find the terminology „Kite Safari“ is for sure more used worldwide. Safari Kite can sound a little unusual, but it emphasizes the wandering & exploratory aspect of the trip, whereas Kite Safari emphasizes the kitesurfing experience.

This distinction can sometimes be confusing. For example, someone might think that a “Kite Safari” involves traveling between spots using a kite itself, which is not the case. The focus is on exploring multiple locations while kitesurfing at each one. So I guess that, even if less commonly used, Safari Kite is a slightly more accurate choice of words – but, for the time being, let’s stick to the more recognized Kite Safari.

As you may have noticed, this article is super boring – if you have any idea for a nice article that I could write, please contact me and suggest me a topic. Thanks!

I love kitesurfing, travelling, and making short walks with my dog. I organize kite cruises in Egypt since 2014, you may find me in some windy beach pretty much all year round when I’m not on the boat, may it be Egypt, Cape Verde, Mauritius or Greece. I drink red wine and play (badly) the guitar. You can contact me at +201009410388 (whatsapp or calls) or just email me at [email protected] Hope to see you on board one of these days!
