Why you'll love Soma Bay

Why you'll love wingfoiling in Soma Bay!

Wing Foiling Holidays Soma Bay

Soma Bay is not only an amazing location for Wing Foiling, but it also has some really great standard accommodations. The ‘bay’ has nice flat water, with very consistent wind from March to October, making this a perfect location for learning to Wing Foil, or improving.

Here at Planet Wing Foiling holiday, we are extremely ‘picky’ about the accommodation and Wing Foiling schools we partner with. This is especially important in Egypt where the ‘5-star’ rating has been so diluted. We offer a range of the best hand-picked accommodation, ranging from a small sociable hotel to luxury beach resorts. Soma Bay is very popular for all types of Wing Foiling holidays, including families, couples, friends and single travellers.

Planet Travel is not just a Wing Foiling holiday company. We have extensive experience constructing luxury tailor-made tours in Egypt, including Nile Cruises, Luxor, Aswan, and Cairo. From Soma Bay, it is easy to add on some amazing trips inland to Luxor, which is just 4 hours by road, and home to some of the most amazing historical sites from the time of the Pharaohs. Please call and speak to an Egypt specialist about putting together the perfect Egypt adventure.
