Hazards

Choppy ocean conditions with strong currents and cold water temperatures year-roundRocks and rocky outcrops along the Oregon coast requiring careful navigationSudden wind shifts and sea state changes common to Pacific Northwest coastal areasLimited visibility during frequent fog and overcast conditions

Launch notes

The beach launch is straightforward given consistent wind directions (NNW and SW dominant), but choppy ocean conditions require careful entry and exit during larger swells.

Gear & clothing

Gear · Bring 14-17m kites for the moderate 11.8kt average winds; a directional board or small wave board handles choppy conditions better than a twin-tip.

Clothing · A 4/3mm wetsuit is essential year-round due to cold Pacific water temperatures; add booties and gloves during winter months (Nov-Feb).

Crowd & etiquette

Respect other water users including swimmers and fishing zones; stay aware of and yield to local kite schools and established launch areas.

Additional notes

With 149.5 windy days annually, Beverly Beach is reliable, but plan around summer swell patterns and winter storm systems. Check local marine forecasts before heading out as conditions can change rapidly.
