Launch notes

The flat lake water provides ideal conditions for beginners with gentle launches from sandy beach. NE and W winds are most reliable; approach from the downwind side of the beach to maximize consistent wind exposure.

Gear & clothing

Gear · Bring 14-17m kites to handle the average 9.6kt winds; consider a larger 19m quiver for lighter days. Flat water boards or directional boards work best for this lake environment.

Clothing · A 4/3mm or 5/4mm wetsuit is essential for December sessions when water temperatures drop significantly. Summer visits may only require a 2/3mm suit or rash guard.

Crowd & etiquette

Respect designated kite zones separate from swimming areas, especially during summer months. Communicate with other kiters to avoid collision in the light wind conditions typical of this spot.

Additional notes

December offers the most consistent wind days (best month), making it ideal for planning trips. Check local wind forecasts as lake thermal effects can create stronger afternoon breezes than morning conditions.
