Boracay: kite spot summary
The kite spot of Boracay is located on the island of Boracay, which is barely 10 square kilometers in size, and is known to be one of the best spots in the Philippines and in Asia. It was also voted the most beautiful island in the world in 2012. The island is located in the middle of the Philippines: to get there, you need to land in Manila or Cebu, then take a flight to Caticlan or Kalibo, and finally a boat (10 minutes from Caticlan). So it’s a long journey but worth it (try to stay there for a while to make the trip worthwhile).
Part of the island is windy, the other part is sheltered, which allows, when not kitesurfing, to enjoy the beach and relax. It is therefore ideal for families.
The main spot is located on Bolabog beach, a lagoon reserved for kiteboarding. The water is flat and the wind is onshore. It is ideal for all levels, although it is better to take lessons if you are not very comfortable (there are several schools on the beach). The lagoon is protected by a coral barrier and is over 2 kilometers long. To reach the beach and the kite center from your accommodation, you can take a “tricycle” driver.
Heavy monsoon between April and October (lots of rain). Otherwise, it can be crowded during the Christmas holidays in particular.
Pros: a paradisiacal island, a beautiful lagoon, a relaxing destination for the whole family
Cons: long journey
