Spot Details

Launch: Beginner

Parking: Free in cul-de-sac; none on summer weekends.

Wind Direction: SW, W, NW, N, NE

Notes: The entire bay is less than 4ft deep and stays relatively calm when windy. Rig in the cul-de-sac. Lots of slicks created by marsh grass islands to the North. You'll need to take the ferry here ($7 round trip). Do not park here on summer weekends, police WILL ask you to leave. There are other places to kite on W summer weekends.
