Tennis Training Camp at Soma Bay, Egypt

A warm-weather tennis base on the Red Sea: 12 ITF-standard soft courts, 4 natural grass courts, and full-board resort accommodation — all within a single complex at Soma Bay, with the tennis facility just 100 m from the hotel.

 

Soma Bay for Tennis Training Camps

Egypt's Red Sea coast offers a reliable, year-round training climate, with warm, dry conditions and over 300 days of sunshine annually. Soma Bay is a private, gated resort destination reserved exclusively for guests and staff, providing a focused, distraction-free environment well suited to competitive preparation, academy camps, and recreational training alike. The resort is reached via Hurghada International Airport (HRG), approximately 45 km away, which is around 50–60 minutes by road, with frequent charter and scheduled connections from across Europe. For tennis players, the combination of multiple court surfaces, professional coaching infrastructure, and on-site accommodation makes Soma Bay one of the most complete tennis training destinations in the region.

When to come

Soma Bay's outdoor courts are open year-round — but Egypt's summer heat means some months suit intensive tennis training far better than others.
