Kite Beaches
Kite Beaches In And Around Mui Ne
Mui Ne isn’t just one beach—it’s a playground of bays, each with its own vibe for kitesurfing. If you’re learning or still finding your sea legs, Mui Ne Main Beach is your go-to spot. It’s the safest place to practice, with plenty of friendly riders around to lend a hand if you need it.
The Cemetery
The Cemetery: Not for beginners. This spot sits right by the Mui Ne headland and packs rocky terrain and heavy swells that will punish anything less than perfect technique. One slip, and your kite—and maybe your pride—could end up shredded on the rocks.
High season wind: Cross onshore (leaning more onshore than cross), making it a serious challenge even for seasoned riders. Only go if you’re ready to push your limits.
Malibu (Hon Rom)
The Main Bay: Right next to The Cemetery, this bay serves up the same challenging conditions—but with a smart move, you can head further up the bay to steer clear of the rocks. Only for experienced kitesurfers—bigger swells and onshore winds will keep you sharp and on your toes.
High season wind: Cross onshore (a bit more onshore than cross), making every ride a test of skill and timing.
Suoi Nuoc
Next Bay (past Malibu): Conditions are similar, but here the wind is almost always onshore—99% of the time. The swells can get fun when they roll in, making it perfect for experienced riders, though confident intermediates can have a blast too.
Along this stretch sits the new Jibes 2 Beach Club/Full Moon Village— a great spot to chill and kite. Just be cool, buy a couple of drinks, and enjoy the vibes while you ride.
Turtle Island
Turtle Island: The furthest kiting spot in Mui Ne, though you’re actually launching from the mainland—Turtle Island itself sits about 200m offshore. This quiet spot is usually empty, giving you space to ride in peace.
The bay curves sharply here, so winds can swing from cross-shore to onshore. Swells can roll in when conditions align, but the real gem is a sheltered flat-water area—perfect for smooth rides. Just watch out for gusty winds as they pass over the land.
High season wind: Cross onshore to straight onshore.
