When people first think of Asia many don't automatically think of water sports. However, Asia has plentiful opportunities for the water sports enthusiast.
The first destination to consider for experiencing some hardcore water sports is Nah Trang, Vietnam. Nah Trang is already well known as the destination in Asia to experience some of the most incredible scuba diving, but this small area is also known for wakeboarding, wind surfing, kayaking, and kite surfing.
Another destination to consider is Thailand’s Patong Beach. With some of the clearest water in the world, Patong Beach features incredible snorkeling, jet skiing, and parasailing. Patong’s crystal white sand beach is also the perfect atmosphere for swimming or just relaxing in the sun.
If you are looking for a unique adventure in water sports a destination to experience would be Palawan, Philippines. With the most diverse range of wildlife, incredible volcanic scenery, and crystal clear water lined by pristine white sand beaches, this is the perfect place for non-motorized water sports such as kayaking, canoeing, snorkeling, and scuba diving.
If you don’t mind closed spaces you may want to experience cave kayaking in Ha Long Bay, Vietnam. With more than a thousand islands you could literally cave kayak for weeks on end without seeing the same cave twice. For a real adventure try night kayaking.
A final place to look to for an incredible water sports adventure is the Mergui Archipelago of Myanmar. Made up of 800 beautiful islands, this archipelago is ripe for sea kayaking, snorkeling, and scuba diving. Experience the beautiful coral reefs up close, or just animal watch the crab eating monkeys or Asian elephants from the comfort of your Kayak.
