Overview

Edit

South of what we refer to as West Beach is another county park off of West Beach Rd. called Hastie Lake. The conditions are probably very similar to West Beach. Look for strong W straights forecasts and passing cold fronts.

Experienced sailors only. On shore wind, waves with very short period, and rocks everywhere. On low tide there is plenty of beach. On high tide it might be possible to rig in the parking lot and use the boat launch but I don't know if anyone has tried. It could also be fun to downwind to West Beach from here. When we were there wind wasn't very steady, lots of lulls. I don't know if this is typical or not.

Directions: Turn West off Highway 20 onto Hastie Lake Road, follow Hastie Lake Road 2.5 miles to road end and the County Park. This access has close neighbors. Please pay special attention and “Respect” private property.

Amenities: Boat Ramp, Beach Access, Trash can, Parking Vista view.

It is your responsibility to check whether kitesurfing is allowed at the spot; you might need a 'special permit' or membership from a local kite organization, etc. Local rules can change. Respect others - kiters or not; kite safely and enjoy the wind!
