give a call to Real kiteboarding.. they should be able to answer all your questions.. they have a great online map of all launch areas.

their site also has some recommended accommodations.

Google the driving directions.. pretty much a straight shot up then 1 turn to head to the outer banks..

I'll call them.
I should have been more specific. I have 3 day weekend. I already looked at the directions and it takes at least 9 hours driving so only 1 day is left riding. I wanted to ask if some1 actually flew there from MIA, which airport and drive from airport.
On a side note, I could take suggestions on a closer spot to go find some wind for a long weekend.
Thanks.

I think its more like 21 hrs to obx from Miami, but what do I know?

Maybe Beufford won't catch you going thru SC & NC ( then again think small town sheriffs w/ speed traps which limit you to 45.......)
