For today’s Geo Quiz we’re tracking kite surfing tour Asia.
Some of the best kite surfers in the world recently converged on an island in the Philippines. We’re looking for the name of this island that’s home to Bulabog Beach…where the wind and the waves make for perfect kite surfing conditions.

“Kite surfing’s special because you can just go out there and do your own thing. There’s nothing holding you down back you just go up and down fly around in the air do your own thing and when the day is done you come in and back to normal life.
We’ll pay a visit to Bulabog Beach 200 miles south of Manila and answer our quiz…”
