Wind on the beach
What the spot record warns about
- a few clearly marked coral areasShallow coral across parts of the Safaga and Soma Bay shallows.
- separate zones exist for kiters and windsurfers to avoid conflicts
- Reef and stones off the Hotel Shams beach.
- Booties are the standard precaution: there are stones on the beach and stones in the water.
- Side-offshore or offshore wind in the morning can make rescue important
