Are NW winds completely off shore? Would I eventually blow into the east beach if I had to self rescue?
I am an intermediate foiler, I can foil up and downwind but I crash 9 out of ten times on transitions. I have about three months kiting experience.

Thanks, Chris
The Ocean side of Bodega Bay is for SE frontal winds preceding a storm in the winter time.
We park by the bathrooms at Doran beach.

Do not try to kite there on NW winds, you will need to be rescued by the Coast Guard Station.
It is offshore wind and fluky, you will be blown offshore.
