Hello Tala,

Many Bay area riders kite off of Ft. DeSoto south of St. Pete. There are some restrictions there which are summarized at:

You might PM Eagle for more info on other Bay area spots.

Check with the guys at WaterSportsWest in Largo....I have ridden at a county park down there...Fort Desoto...it has a few different launch spots and catches a lot of wind directions.....it is the nicest county park I have seen anywhere and has camping as well.
