goagoa Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 (edited) Does anybody know about any open kitesurfing or scuba diving shops on Kho Samui, Koh Phangan, or Koh Tao ? I saw 2 kites on the beach in Nathon recently, but couldn't find a shop renting them out. Edited May 31, 2021 by goagoa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alw22 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Yes, on windy days there are dozens of kite surfers out on Phangan. I don't know the name, but walk about 300 m along the beach south of Thong Sala Pier and you'll find them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are half a dozen kiteboarding/windsurfing places in Samui on trip advisor but I have no idea if they are trading at the moment. Some do state that they are open but....

siamike Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I believe KBA (Kite Board Asia) still has stores open on Sumi and Phangan,...not sure about Tao. You can also try Kiteflip on Phangan. If you make it to Hua Hin you have your choice of either KBA or SAP kite school/rentals. There's another KBA school/rental in Pattaya. You can probably find a little more info here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/KitingThailand. This weekend and the following few days are starting to look good for kiting at my home location Pak Nam Prasae: https://www.windy.com/12.693/101.706?12.339,101.397,9,m:d0kaiYF Happy kiting ????

AKJeff Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Most dive shops are closed on Koh Tao but there are half a dozen or so still operating. So you can have the dive sites almost to yourself. The ones that are open are doing fun dives and courses. Sairee is probably the best location for open shops. I have seen kite surfing but don't know if rental shops are open.
