The beach stretches on the sunny coast and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike.

What to do in Mesca Beach? Are there any attractions or entertainments in region?

If you like outdoor activities, the Mesca Beach can offer such an experience. In particular - SUP surfing. The beach stands out for an excellent base for this kind of sport. And the bonus is the gorgeous scenery from the water. Just try, we recommend it!

Extremes can be moderate or excessive, so if you are a fan of the first type, than Mesca Beach welcomes you, offering kite and windsurfing. If on the contrary, it is not your kind of activity, we recommend you to find another beach, since the presence of lots of kite surfers on water can have a negative impact on the comfort of your leisure.

Very nicely arranged, but extremely expensive. Wind at this location is off shore and gusty. Other kite centers have better wind. Trip to the “Utopia Island” 🏝️ is worth it for the more consistent wind.

I was here for the second time and both holidays were great. Nice welkom by the lady at the front desk. Friendly people behind the bar and the food is very nice. Great storage facillities for my foilboard and kites. At night extra security on the beach so that is very safe. Every hoor there is a shuttlebus from and to the hotels. See you next year 😎😎

Visited this place on two occasions in April 2024. The staff were very efficient and went out of their way to help me. You need to have a kitesurfing licence to use their gear, but I had my own gear. Excellent storage facilities and everything you need on site. The bay in front of the kite house is great for beginners and experienced kite surfers. The wind can be a little gusty at times, but if you are a competent kitesurfer then I can highly recommend the down winder to Tobia island which is 3 miles downwind. For no extra cost, they provide you with a gps tracker (just in case) and a support boat accompanies you to the island where the wind is stronger and consistent. You can also send your kids ahead on the support boat and then snorkel around the island. Tobia island has a restaurant, umbrellas and full bar. Support boat and staff are all their to help you when you arrive and return trips to the kite house are flexible. We had an amazing day out and I can’t rate the experience highly enough. Thank you 7 Beaufort Kite House.

Definitely one of the best kite spots I’ve ever been in a distance of just 4,5 hours of flight from Europe. Great people. All of them speak really good English and German. Great wind conditions, almost no waves and this awesome color of the Red Sea with the mountains in the background. Perfect for absolute beginners and for pro’s. And if there is now wind you still have plenty of possibilities to enjoy your holidays there. I’ve been already 6 times in Soma Bay and Kitehouse is now my second home ;) Looking forward for my next return in October.
