This is a small dirty beach next to the freeway. The beach is tiny so your aim has to be good. The only other landing option is rocks. Surrounding the beach is a 10 foot rock wall several miles long. Launching is very difficult at high tide. Self-launching and self-landing often required.
The water is never warm, 55-65°F. A 3mm wetsuit is needed all summer. Spring is unsettled (rain, sun, storm, 40-70°F). Summer is cool, foggy, and breezy (55-70°F). Fall is warm, dry, and calm (50-70°F). Winter is unsettled (rain, sun, storm, 35-60°F).
San Francisco Airport. Directions to kite launch: From the north exit 80 at University. Stay on the West Frontage Road going south. You will see a small parking lot on a little peninsula. This is where you will launch from. Parking is very limited.
