Spot Details

Ottawa river- Long sandy beach area, easily wide enough to launch and land. Water is chest deep for the first 100m with soft sandy bottom, and no rocks. Wind varies in direction.  Riden there a few times, seems to be a good spot!  

Access and parking are no issue. 

Kiting is not common here, so be cautious of on lookers and beach goers.
