There are several launch sites where you will find it easy to network and get to know who rides where and when.
The popular spots are Ft DeSoto (any wind direction), Gulf Beaches (Treasure Island is a good spot) when the wind is off the Gulf or N/S.
August is a good time to be here as the kite season arrives with the first cold front of Fall.
