Boracay’s kitesurfing and windsurfing beach
Bulabog Beach lies on Boracay’s east coast, directly across the narrow middle of the island from Station 2. When the north-east monsoon — the amihan, roughly November to April — sets in, the wind blows steadily across its shallow, reef-protected lagoon, and Bulabog becomes one of Asia’s best-known kitesurfing and windsurfing spots.
The beach is lined with kite and windsurf schools, gear rental shops and small, relaxed hotels. In the habagat months, when the wind turns south-west, Bulabog is calmer and the boats that normally use White Beach sometimes shelter on this side.
Schools along the beach offer courses for complete beginners; a GetYourGuide kiteboarding course is also listed.
Even if you do not ride, an afternoon with a drink watching dozens of kites over the lagoon is one of the island’s great spectacles.
Windsurfing schools work here too, and parasailing boats operate from whichever side of the island is calmer.
These GetYourGuide experiences are the easiest way to add Bulabog Beach to your Boracay days:
Top rated Boracay’s most popular non-swimmer adventure. You wear a helmet supplied with air from the boat and walk on the sea floor roughly ten feet down, among fish, with a guide beside you. The photos and videos are part of the package.
Best views The classic Boracay thrill: strapped into a harness under a parachute, you are towed up behind a speedboat for a view over the island and its reefs. This listing includes Insta360 footage, so your hands stay free.
