Overview

Manjuyod Sandbar is a spectacular 7-kilometer white sandbar in the Tanon Strait between Negros and Cebu islands, Central Visayas, Philippines. At low tide, the sandbar emerges from the sea creating a stunning riding location. The area catches both Amihan (NE) and Habagat (SW) monsoon winds.

The exposed sandbar creates unique kitesurfing conditions with shallow flat water on the lee side. Accessible only by boat from the mainland. The sandbar is tide-dependent - it only appears at low tide. Wind from both NE and SW directions works. Advanced spot due to remote location and tidal dependency. An unforgettable kite experience when conditions align.
