Overview

Lauren from the campground good on a S or N.

I launched at the lower right hand corner of this picture. The tide was low and it was an easy launch. Just past the dock is a nice grassy area that would work well. On Thursday when I arrived it was blowing from the North and would have been pretty cool flat water riding but I had to unpack and set up camp.

The launch is inside the pay camping area. There may be a lower day use fee. There is also another park just south of Fort Flagler that might work.

The wind seemed to funnel a little through the bay and I was suprised at how lit I was on the 13. Water was very shallow and I could see the bottom most of the time.

Camping with the family at Fort Flagler and I got a great session on the 13m Waroo Pro. Could have been on the 9. It was a pretty good spot for a s-sw. I kited the west side or Kilisut Harbor. Slightly gusty and relatively flat water conditions with small chop.

It is your responsibility 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!
