About Kitecenter at Banana Bay

Known for kitesurfing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces E, so wind from the W blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).

Water about 29°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

A spot for kitesurfing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing E. Wind from the E blows onshore, wind from the W blows out to sea, and wind from the S or N runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea is about 27°C in January, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 30°C in May, its warmest (no wetsuit). For kitesurfing at beginner level the best month is usually February, with about 6 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Malay. Within 5 km we also list 2 wind sports spots.
