Bring all your kites. . .Never know with the N. Coast. Manzanita is typically stronger wind than up North at Ft. Stevens.

yeah bring em all! and for wind info I would probably just call Cleanline in Seaside or Pacwave in Warrenton.

While at Nehalem you'll kite at Manzanita (downwind from the town to the park) and from Ft Stevens you can kite anywhere along the Northern Strip and drive on the beach for DW's.

You'll see other kiters when you get down here!

Enjoy. Smile
