Kite Spots

Linaw Beach, in front of Linaw Beach Resort and Solea Beach Resort is a great spot to kite during the habagat season (June through September). It likes wind from the Southwest.

Libaong Beach is a good place to kite during the Amihan season (from November through May) when the northeast tradewinds are blowing. Generally, it like a little more east, though it can work if there’s some north though it’s a little more sideshore and gusty.

Doljo Beach is an excellent place to kite during the Amihan season from November through May. It gets the northeast tradewinds, but really shines when the wind is a bit more North. There are several resorts on Doljo Beach, but you can also go to a semi-public beach at Dominguez Beach House and pay a minimal entrance fee.

Dumaluan Beach is a good place to kitesurf during the Amihan season when the northeast tradewinds are blowing (from November to May). There is a public beach and also a private resort called Dumaluan Beach Resort. Both will charge you an entrance fee, but the semi-public beach is probably cheaper. Then you can walk out to the beach and launch anywhere that it’s clear of people.

Kiteboarding in Dimiao is often a good choice and can turn on in either the Amihan or Habagat wind seasons. During Amihan, it likes straight east wind, and during habagat, it like plenty of south. Seaside Beach Park or Kaylaa Beach Resorts can both accommodate you for whatever you need, with Kaylaa being the nicer but more expensive of the two.

Biking Beach (also called Bikini Beach) is a public beach located on the east side of Panglao Island, Bohol. It works mostly during the Amihan season (November through May) as it is exposed to the northeast tradewinds. It likes when the wind is more easterly as it sits a little bit in the wind shadow of Bohol Island. It may also be possible to kite Biking Beach during the Habagat season (June through October) which depends on tropical storm wind.

Anda has a beautiful whitesand beach on the far southeast coast of Bohol, which gets good exposure to the northeast tradewinds. While it’s about a 3.5 hour drive from Pangloa Island, it’s worth it for the natural beauty and sometimes better wind conditions.
