B2B Kite Summit Dakhla 2026: business and board sports from 25 to 29 September

The 9th edition of the B2B Kite Summit brings entrepreneurs, executives and startups to Dakhla Attitude for four days of networking, kite and wingfoil.

A professional seminar with your feet in the sand

The ninth edition of the B2B Kite Summit gathers entrepreneurs, executives, freelancers and startups at Dakhla Attitude from 25 to 29 September 2026. The organisation announces around 300 participants, 50 startups and a programme designed to generate numerous one-to-one meetings. The concept combines talks, discussions on strategy and personal development, networking activities, evenings, kitesurfing and wingfoiling. A longer formula allows arrival from 22 September for the Warmup. The summit is therefore not an open trade fair you drop into for a few hours: it is a residential stay with planned accommodation, meals and activities.

Who can the event bring value to?

The format suits people ready to talk concretely about their business, their needs and the collaborations they are seeking. A freelancer can meet clients or partners, a startup can test its offer, and an executive can step back from the usual setting. The value nevertheless depends on preparation: define three objectives, prepare a short pitch and identify the profiles to meet before departure. Kitesurfing creates common ground for conversation, but it does not replace professional follow-up after the event. Set aside time on your return to sort the contacts, send the promised documents and turn the exchanges into next steps.

Kite and wingfoil without performance pressure

The summit welcomes riders and beginners. The water activities make informal encounters easier and offer a way to discover the lagoon, but check the lessons included in the chosen package. Any rental and some beginner lessons are announced outside the standard formula, whereas the Warmup includes four hours of introduction. A non-sporty participant can enjoy the talks, the evenings and the setting without feeling obliged to ride. In all cases, the centre's instructions prevail over the business programme: a meeting can be moved, but an outing on the water must never be improvised when the wind or the level are not right.

Accommodation, flights and choosing the package

Dakhla Attitude is privatised for the event and offers several room categories, with very different rates depending on occupancy and comfort. Direct flights from Paris are offered separately, with a boardbag and a suitcase announced in the flight formula. Compare the four-day and seven-day packages, then check the insurance, drinks outside meals, lessons, equipment and cancellation terms. See our Dakhla Attitude listing to place the resort. Bookings were due to close on 1 September, but ticketing may reach capacity before that date.

Planning the rest of your stay in Dakhla

Before booking, compare the total cost, the cancellation terms and the required level. To build a coherent stay, browse our full calendar of events in Dakhla, the accommodation, the restaurants and the activities. The lagoon centres can be far from town: confirm the airport transfers, the shuttles and the board arrangements before departure. A free day also lets you discover the White Dune, Dragon Island or the market without sacrificing the recovery needed for sports activities.
