Learning at the kite bar

Post by mota » Wed May 02, 2007 1:34 pm

For kids learning, or anyone -2 - hours before low tide and upto 2 hours past presents the best conditions for walking in less than waist deep water. The other Launch about half mile back in big break is good too, I've cleared all the weeds in a huge safe launch area with sandy bottom - but riding there on low tide is weedy and the kite bar always gets a little more wind. But riding there on high tide with good wind is heaven - lots of butter! lauritzens marina offers tide charts for the harbor mouth which is within swimming distance from the kite bar here: http://www.lauritzens.com/water/Water.asp ..
they also have a live cam that is usually directed at the river - you can actually see water conditions and they give live hourly wind and links to water temp etc. here: http://www.lauritzens.com/video/HarborView.asp
They move this cam around and you can often see the palm trees blowin in the wind etc.
