7 Best Kiteboarding Locations in Asia for 2018

Postby extremenomads » Thu Apr 05, 2018 1:32 pm

ASIA’S KITESURFING GAME IS STRONG

It often passes under the radar of the international kiting community, but in reality:

Asia has some of the best kitesurfing in the world.

It’s the home of big name kite brands like North, Core, Carved, and Best.

It’s the stomping ground of international kite competitions like the Kiteboard Tour Asia and the IKA’s Kitefoil Gold Cup and TT:R Slalom circuits.

It’s the winter getaway of choice for tons of European kitesurfers who come to make the most of the tropical temperatures and reliable wind.

The Asian kiteboarding community is growing at an insane rate, and new places are opening up all the time.

Old favourites like Mui Ne, Boracay, and Kalpitiya still have a solid kite community- but after close to a decade of heavy kite tourism, a lot of kite travellers are now turning to new, less-crowded locations.

These changes call for an updated list of Asia’s best kitesurfing destinations for 2018.

Here are the spots that we think will grow in the next few years:
