About This Spot
Khê Gà is a sheltered bay on Vietnam's southern coast facing southeast into the South China Sea. The spot features a gently sloping sandy beach with residential and agricultural development backing the shore. A rocky island sits approximately 500m offshore, providing some wave blocking. The bay's enclosed nature creates light, inconsistent wind patterns, with extremely low reliability (5.7%). Average wind of 6.7 knots is marginal for kitesurfing, requiring optimal conditions. Water temperatures average 27.3°C year-round, supporting year-round activity. The shallow bay and visible boat traffic indicate moderate hazards. This spot suits beginners and intermediate kiters during rare strong wind days, typically requiring northeast winds to achieve side-shore conditions. Expect flat to small wave conditions suitable for freestyle and light riding rather than wave riding. Local timing and patience are essential given wind unreliability. Best visited during monsoon season when wind patterns strengthen.
