The GKA Kite World Tour returns to Dakhla, where Kite-Surf riders line up at one of the most contestable wave-riding venues in the sport—West Point
This iconic location has become a cornerstone of the tour, consistently delivering the conditions needed to showcase the very best in strapless wave performance.
Set between the Atlantic Ocean and the edge of the Sahara Desert, Dakhla offers a rare combination of powerful, clean swell and reliable wind. At West Point, riders are met with long, peeling right-hand waves and steady cross-shore winds, creating ideal conditions for linking critical turns, aerial maneuvers, and progressive wave combinations. The consistency of both wind and waves allows for high-performance competition across multiple days, making it one of the most dependable stops on the calendar.
The climate in Dakhla is uniquely stable, with year-round sunshine, mild temperatures, and strong trade winds that blow with remarkable regularity. These conditions not only provide a perfect competitive platform, but also ensure that athletes can push their limits in a world-class environment.
Beyond the water, Dakhla delivers a cultural experience unlike anywhere else on tour. With its blend of Moroccan heritage, desert landscapes, and growing watersports community, the destination continues to attract international riders year after year. As a long-standing and celebrated stop on the GKA Kite World Tour, Dakhla stands as a true legacy event—where global talent, natural elements, and local culture come together to define the essence of Kite-Surf competition.
