Overview

Kitesurf

Bogmalo Beach is a small, sheltered beach in South Goa near the Dabolim airport and Vasco da Gama city. The beach faces west toward the Arabian Sea and receives NW winds during the October to March kite season. It is a quieter beach with less tourist traffic than the popular North Goa spots.

The relatively sheltered bay can sometimes reduce wind strength compared to more exposed beaches. Sandy bottom with generally calm conditions. The proximity to the airport makes it convenient for arriving kitesurfers. Suitable for intermediate riders.
