The El Gouna Water Sports Festival is running for its sixth edition from 17 to 26 September, ten days of competition on the Red Sea, according to EnterpriseAM.

The programme covers kitesurfing, wing foiling, racing and cable wakeboarding, with local and international riders competing across several events.

Entries are handled through the Fly Events website, EnterpriseAM reported.

The report does not give venues for the individual competitions, a day-by-day running order, or whether spectators pay to watch. With the festival now in its final days, anyone hoping to catch it will need to check the organiser's listing for start times.
