Mangroovy Beach

Mangroovy Beach is a developed lagoon area on Egypt's Red Sea coast, characterized by protected shallow waters enclosed by residential and resort developments. The coastline faces east toward open water, creating a natural harbor that has been extensively modified with marinas and moored vessels. The lagoon setting provides protection from large swells and wind exposure is limited compared to open-coast beaches. Water conditions are typically choppy rather than wave-organized, with 0.47m average swell and 10.4-knot average wind at only 33.5% reliability. The spot suits beginners due to shallow water and protected conditions, though the developmental density and boat traffic create navigation challenges. Best wind directions are northerly (340-360°) or southerly (160-180°) for side-shore conditions. Kiters should expect limited maneuvering space, slow-moving moored boats, and inconsistent wind patterns due to land obstruction. Low reliability suggests visiting during seasonal wind windows rather than year-round use.
