Boracay as a perfect windsurfer’s destination

Boracay is not just a sun worshiper’s paradise, with its fine, powdery white sand and azure waters, but for thrill seekers, its also one of the best places for windsurfing.

Boracay’s Bulabog Beach, the side opposite White Beach is ideal for this sport. Especially during the northeastern monsoon, the wind is especially strong. That’s why during this time of the year, the Boracay International Funboard Cup is being held. During this event, lots of players, both local and international come and compete.

But for the novice, its not really difficult. First, there are several windsurfing (and kiteboarding) schools located along the Bulabog Beach strip with different price ranges and accommodations depending on one’s budget. One can even arrange with the different windsurf training providers via their website as they offer sweat free packages like these all inclusive Ski Holidays that simplifies the booking process via their websites.

There’s more to the western part of Panay than Boracay. In fact, there are many interesting places in the provinces of Aklan, Antique and western Iloilo that just amazes without driving all the way to Caticlan. Ruins, churches, food and rowdy festivals are there waiting. Second, there are several competent and certified trainers that ensure you get the proper training that is recognized worldwide. Third, these windsurfing schools have world class equipment to boot. One can even chose to rent these out while learning at prices that are affordable.

Best of all, nothing beats learning to windsurf in one of the world’s best beaches, with great food, nightlife and very hospitable people that will make your stay enjoyable.
