I haven't kited there, but been there when people were kiting. You can set up just North of the public parking lot and head out from there.
PS... let me know if you go, PM me or something, I'll be in Pacific City. Maybe I'll cruise down and hit it with you. |

| Gonna be riding this weekend, Steve? Looks like Newport's been solid the last 2 days. Hoping tomorrow will be decent, though I won't be out 'til after 1-2ish. Saturday possibly too? The fam's camping at Beverly! |

Oh yeah,
Waldport's the spot - and soon there's going to be 1200+ half a million dollar homes owned by kiters in the new golf course subdivision! Baja will be a thing of the past when they discover Waldport in the wintertime! |
