The ultimate adventure
Experience with us in Oman the ultimate kitecamp including an off-road adventure! Crossing rugged mountains, driving through the desert, into dreamlike oases, accompanied by the flair of the Orient - to one of the windiest kite spots in the world.
Starting from Muscat we cross Oman with off-road vehicles, which also serve as our accommodation. On the way to the best kite spots we get to know the country and the incredibly friendly people. We experience the flair of the Orient in the desert, its oases and at the bazaar up close.

Our highly trained LakeUnited coaches are always on-site at each of our camps. LakeUnited coaches are passionate about your progress. Their years of experience, their keen eye, and their attention to detail will help you improve your kitesurfing skills quickly and easily. Supervision offers you the space to make progress independently.
As part of LakeUnited Supervision, we ensure the perfect space and safety at the spot. This enables real progress and the further development of your kite skills. We select the right spot on site, assist you in choosing the right equipment, and give you personalized tips for your individual progress. Depending on the wind and weather, we hold workshops on various topics. Supervision is not coaching or traditional kite lessons.
We create the framework so you can get the most out of your experience. We share all our knowledge and tricks with you and answer all your questions to help you become a better kiter.
Land of dates, scents and friendly faces
Oman - or rather, the Sultanate of Oman - is located in the south-east of the Arabian Peninsula. Where the incense route had its origins, you can find old tradition next to modern comfort today. Completely without artificially inflated cities with skyscrapers, which are otherwise common in the region.
The Omanis are very friendly and accommodating. They welcome their guests with joy. It can happen that someone invites you to dinner on the street because they would like to talk to you about their country and culture. The official language is Arabic, the commercial language is English, and there is also a colorful mixture of Urdu, Persian and Swahili.
We start our journey well equipped. Our 400 hp 4x4 vehicles are equipped with camping equipment (camping stoves, crockery and cutlery, mats, tables, shovels and even a shower). The cars have a roof tent for two people.
All you really need is a summer sleeping bag and a drivers license (no off-road experience necessary)
Most probably the best spot
Oman, the pearl of the Orient. This undoubtedly also applies to our kite spot at Sur Masirah. The ferry from the mainland to the small island takes an hour. A few shops, coffee shops and restaurants are located near the ferry dock.
But we travel a little further to set up our kite camp. To endless beaches and shimmering turquoise sea. Shallow water lagoons border standing areas, with a small island on the horizon that wants to be explored. There is also a constant wind blowing, which makes the temperatures really pleasant. Oman is known for its strong winds and is more of an area for smaller kites.
Finally, we head to our absolute dream spot on the mainland – an endless playground like no other. A kitesurfing paradise come true.
Offroad across the desert
On the way to the kitesurfing spot, we'll explore Oman's exciting landscape in our off-road vehicles. During our journey, we'll spend the night in the desert, overlooking a starry sky that will leave our jaws dropping.
We explore wadis, the gorges in the cooler mountains, where, depending on rainfall, streams or pools invite you to swim. Cities and small villages with their bazaars invite you to stroll and explore. Once we reach the sea, we take the ferry and continue our journey to stunning kitesurfing beaches. To top it all off, we'll visit our absolute favorite kitesurfing spot on the mainland.
Our 4×4 off-road kite camp in Oman is an adventure, and we sometimes adapt the route during our tour to the conditions and interests of the group.
Fancy a great off-road adventure through the mountains and desert of Oman? Discover with us the flair of the Orient up close and one of the windiest kite spots in the world.
We have briefly summarized all the useful information for you.
Two participants share a four-wheel drive vehicle. All cars are well equipped with camping equipment and have a roof tent in which two can sleep well. If you prefer to sleep alone, you can take an extra tent with you. Basically, you only need (for hygienic reasons) a summer sleeping bag.
The car inventory in detail:
All you really need is a summer sleeping bag and an international drivers license (no off-road experience necessary)
Our cars are equipped with camping stoves, crockery and cutlery. If we feel like it, we can go shopping and cook together.
Wenn es sich ergibt, gehen wir untertags in einem der zahlreichen Coffeeshops auf einen Snack.
Abends gehen wir meist in gemeinsam essen. Das lokale Essen ist hervorragend und richtig günstig. Es gibt ausschließlich Gesamtrechnungen, die wir einfach durch die Anzahl der Personen teilen.
Wir haben immer das passende Equipment für dich! Somit reist du viel unbeschwerter. Es macht definitiv Sinn, auf Material aus unserem Kite-Poolzurückzugreifen. Dann bist du immer bestens ausgestattet. Für unser 4×4 Offroad Kitecamp nehmen wir für jede/n drei Kites und ein TwinTip mit (mehr Platz bietet das Auto nicht). Die Größen (Kites von 6-13qm) werden individuell auf euch abgestimmt.
Good to know: Our equipment rental includes kites and boards. If you don't have your own harness or want to rent one, let us know. If you don't have your own wetsuit yet, we will be happy to advise you with buying one or support you with renting on site.
Money:
We need cash for our trip, as in restaurants or at the bazaar we can only pay in cash. Currency exchange is possible on site. Or you can withdraw directly on site with your credit card. Money exchange options during our trip are relatively rare, especially at the kite spot; money cannot be exchanged in Sur Masirah. Achtung, für die Kaution des Mietautos ist die Hinterlegung einer gültigen Kreditkarte erforderlich.
Internet:
Wir empfehlen, eine eigene SIM Karte im Vorhinein oder am Flughafen zu besorgen, wenn du auch während unseres Camps auf Internet nicht verzichten möchtest. Grundsätzlich haben wir fast durchgehend auf unserer Route Empfang.
Visa:
Please inform yourself in advance about the entry requirements (visa) for your country of origin. A visa is usually not a must for 10 days, but it is recommended to organize one in advance.
Drivers license:
Für die Miete und das Fahren der Fahrzeuge wird ein internationaler Führerschein benötigt (Achtung, die Bearbeitungsdauer kann stark variieren, bitte rechtzeitig bei euren Behörden informieren)
I am traveling alone, who will I share a car with?
There are 2 people per vehicle who take turns driving. We make the classification and take separate female and male combinations into account.
How many days do we spend kitesurfing?
Wenn der Wind passt, kommen wir an sechs Tagen zum Kiten. Unsere Erfahrung: Dadurch, dass der Wind dort 24 Stunden bläst, kommst du auf eine Netto-Kitezeit wie bei 10 Tagen an einem anderen Kitespot.
Is it safe in Oman?
Oman is often referred to as the Switzerland of the Orient. A kingdom where everyone is very friendly, wealthy and happy.
What is it like to travel in Oman for women?
Wir bereisen ein arabisches Land, in dem es einige Regeln speziell für Frauen gibt, die allerdings einfach zu beachten sind. Wenn wir uns in Städten und Dörfern am Anfang der Reise aufhalten, sollten Schultern und Ellenbogen bedeckt sein. In den Wadis beim Baden haben wir Lycras übergezogen. Auf Masirah Island und beim Kiten kann Frau auch im Bikini unterwegs sein und kiten – Sonnenschutz aber nicht vergessen.
Do I have internet there?
Das Internet ist unglaublich gut ausgebaut. Du hast bis auf einen Spot durchgehend 5G Empfang. Bei einem Spot nur dann, wenn du am Dachzelt stehst.
How is the temperature?
The temperatures on our trip vary greatly, we pack clothes for very warm temperatures, but also cool, windy days.
It's really warm inland. You need long, airy clothing with a hat for sun protection. On the coast it is around 30 degrees with wind making the temperatures more pleasant. On Masirah we needed warm clothes in the evening. A warming beanie for sensitive heads and a soft shell jacket make spending time outdoors comfortable.
Do I need a wetsuit?
No, the water is very warm. We always wear a thin undergarment so that the harness doesn't rub on the skin and a long-sleeved Lycra over it as sun protection. We also recommend thin neoprene shoes or socks to protect you from sharp objects.
