Overview

Kitesurf

Benaulim Beach is located in South Goa, India, facing west toward the Arabian Sea. This quieter stretch of Goa's coastline offers a more relaxed atmosphere compared to the busy North Goa beaches. The beach receives the same NW monsoon winds from October to March.

The south Goa beaches tend to be less crowded, giving kitesurfers more space. Wind conditions follow the same pattern as North Goa with NW cross-shore winds of 12-18 knots during the winter season. Sandy bottom with small to moderate shore break. Suitable for intermediate riders.
