Overview

Experienced Kiters Only!

Works best on W or NW winds. Launch in the grass field east of the parking lot. Wind is very flukey in this field. (think mags flukey) bee line it to the water for smoother winds. Do not attempt to ride here if the tide is flooding in strong. Watch for bull kelp later in the summer. Beautiful spot, occasionally has a surfable break. Wind tends to lighten up east of the launch so try to stay west of the parking lot (upwind) in the event the wind drops.

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!
