Spot Details

North shore, 2 km west of KEHOKIPA via dirt access road (east of rock causeway). Excellent kite launch, shallow water, large rigging area.

The point at Kitebeach has been reshaped

again and has been reseeded this spring. AB environment has just

given the Force 10 boardsailing club permission to maintain the

site ... according to their conditions ... eventually, it will

be an awesome launch this season.

DUE TO THE CURRENT STATUS of Kitebeach, all camping

and washrooms should be at Kehokipa or the

Ranch[/url]. DAY USE ONLY at Kitebeach until status is in

order, "Please do not jeopardize access to this excellent

kite site".

Silty to Muddy Launch. Great place to learn and to Catch Big Air.

Bring your 6 to 12 m kites.

Best in SW to Westerly Winds.

Stick to the Road Allowance and DON'T Drive on the Pad.
