Boracay is
one of the most establish kite locations in Asia with an already well
established world reputation for top class wind and kiting conditions.
As one of the Philippines top island holiday destinations, Boracay also
offers lots of options on places to stay, eat, drink, party and try
your hand at other watersports when you are not competing.
The KTA competitions will be held on the Bulabog beach side of the
island where all the kite schools and action takes place during the
winter monsoon months. The kiting here takes place inside a large reef
protected bay that means for the most part flat or more or less flat
water in al but the strongest of winds, which can however be pretty
strong during January, so expect chop on those days.
Bulabog beach itself is
not so wide, but more than enough for set-up and launching needs, plus
it is shallow for a good way on the inside giving you plenty of safety
margin to work with.
WIND - WEATHER - WATER
The winds during February in Boracay come from the northeast, with wind
speeds between 25 – 30 kts. This will give a left to right cross
onshore for the competition beach.
Temperatures for February range from 28 – 32 degrees Celsius, with a small chance of tropic cloudbursts from time to time.
The water temperature will be around 28 degrees Celsius.

TRAVEL - ACCOMODATION
laguna boracay -
Internationally you can fly into either Manila, Cebu or Kalibo airports
and then transfer down to Boracay by a domestic flight to Caticlan
airfield on Panay the bigger island opposite Boracay. You could also
travel cheaper by road if you arrive at Kalibo by taking a mini-van or
bus down to Caticlan, which is around 1.5hrs time wise.
Once at Caticlan you then take a ferry across onto Boracay itself. A short 10 minute crossing on a local Banka.
Do not forget to check if you need a visa for the Philippines or not.
Some nationalities can stay in the Philippines for up to 21 days
without a visa which you can check on the following link http://www.dfa.gov.ph/consular/visa.htm
Boracay has been built on tourism so there is no shortage of places to
stay within a short walk of the competition beach. Prices will range
from US$ 20 per night for the more basic rooms up to lots for 5 star
resort type luxury, but its all there so just choose.
