Hazards

Shallow flat water with potential hidden rocks and coral patches near shoreStrong currents during tidal changes in the coveOccasional fishing nets and local boat trafficTropical sun exposure and sudden weather changes during monsoon transitions

Launch notes

Launch from the sandy beach into flat water with consistent ESE-NE winds; excellent conditions for beginners with minimal chop and easy water re-entry.

Gear & clothing

Gear · 14-17m kites suit the consistent 14.7kt average winds; use a directional board or beginner-friendly twin-tip for the flat water conditions.

Clothing · Light rash guard or thin wetsuit (2mm) year-round due to tropical warmth; heavier protection unnecessary in Philippine waters.

Crowd & etiquette

Respect local fishermen and avoid launching during peak fishing hours; stay aware of other water users and maintain safe distance from boats.

Additional notes

Best wind conditions occur during northeast monsoon season (Nov-Mar); plan sessions early morning to avoid afternoon heat and thermal wind variability. Check local weather for sudden squalls during shoulder seasons.
