Spot Details
Bay and ocean

Smith Point Park: Another Southwest big beach spot. Parking for a 5-10 dollar fee. No rules yet. Just head downwind of the people on the beach. You have 5 miles of beach with no one on it for your kite fun. Barrier island beach setup. No rocks, and lots of fun sandbars to form fun waves. Again, iwindsurf shows green this place is fun. Be nice to all the spectators.
Best Wind direction: Any south related wind.
Direction: South End of the William Floyd Parkway. When it ends you are there.
Rules and regulations: Yes, just walk downwind of the crowds on the beach. This is a county beach, not a town beach, not a state park beach. Enjoy.
