Overview

Flat water, choppy at the northern end and gets smoother the further south you go. Very gusty in a SW. Lots of marine life. Nice grassy launch area, can be a big walk out to the water on low tide. No waves to speak of because of the short fetch. Best in S to SW.

It is your responsability to check whether kitesurfing is allowed at the spot; you might need a 'special permit' or membership from a local kite organization, etc. Local rules can change. Respect others - kiters or not; kite safely and enjoy the wind!
