State Parks and Kitesurfing

[ricki]

It is at the far western end of the land mass sticking into the ICW. If guys ride close to shore they could easily overfly it and often did during some but not all visits. I spoke to the kiters about it at the time. I don't think the birds were nesting during that visit despite the posted signs. The birds would still fly up when the kite came close by. It usually isn't hard to get away from the shoreline, birdwatchers are out there with cameras at times. This has been made an issue in some other areas and parks. It is a small thing to do to avoid potential serious problems. At any rate, I haven't heard of any complaints there a good thing given the unique qualities of the place unlike some other areas.

Ah. I misunderstood where you were talking about. I kite there quite often and didn't even realize it. But apparently it didn't used to be fenced off and people would set up their kites over there
