Imnaju Beach

Imnaju Beach is located on the eastern coast of the Philippines facing the Pacific Ocean. The spot features a crescent-shaped beach with a shallow lagoon protected by a natural sandbar system, opening to deeper ocean waters. The coastline orientation toward the east creates a predominantly open-ocean exposure with consistent wave generation. The shallow lagoon provides a protected launch area, while the outer beach break offers moderate wave heights averaging 1.73m. Wind reliability is moderate at 56.6%, with an average of 13.7 knots. North winds (0°) provide optimal side-shore conditions for this east-facing coast, allowing safe launches and consistent drift patterns. This spot suits intermediate kiters who can handle variable wind conditions and moderate wave exposure. The shallow lagoon entry reduces rescue difficulty, but rocky outcrops in the nearshore zone require careful positioning. The beach break generates shifting sandbars that change seasonally. Best conditions occur during established north wind patterns with adequate fetch from the open ocean, typically during cooler season months.
