Beach and Tide Conditions
Recommended tide for kitesurfing is High Tide .
Boracay / White Beach, Philippines is a Shallow, Flat, Chop and Small waves spot.
The launching/landing area is reported to be of Small size.
It has the enviable title of `the most beautiful beach in the world`. The wind is generally onshore so launching and landing should be undertaken with care. Body dragging out a safe distance is highly recommended before water starting. The width of the beach varies with the tide height, at high tide the beach is around 5 meters wide, low tide is around 15 meters wide. The beach has a lot of debris washed up from the prevailing NE winds. Outside most of the windsurfing/kiteboarding centers they generally clean each day. Otherwise the there is a lot of debris that will become entangled in you lines if not careful.
Crystal blue and warm. Flat water inside the reef, a large area to play, able to accommodate a large number of kiteboarders and windsurfers. Outside of reef, swell increases with increasing wind strength. On the reef, tide variations and wind strength will affect the waves breaking but generally small and lumpy waves are on offer. High and low tide affects the water depth inside the reef and over the reef. Generally low tide will give very little water depth, but if you’re keen and a crazy kiter with no fear of coral cuts then get out there. It is also possible to surf or walk out past the reef and kite beyond the reef if you’re really keen. Middle and high tide create slightly different conditions with a tiny but manageable chop.
