Good Sand, but lots of White Pine trees to shred your kite on
Set up:
On the beach, beware, it get deep very fast, the beach is small and there is not a lot of room to launch.
Be aware of swimmers, kayaks, and boats in the Summer season. It can get crowded.
Kiting Level:
Expert (able to kite upwind). and self rescue,
In case you have a break down there is a good landing zone downwind, left of the point by the light beacon, but if you miss that you are screwed.
Wind, for clean wind, the only direction you can kite on is WSW.
