1. Kite leash is mandatory. 2. Respect the locals and beachgoers. 3. The local kiting crew will cut your lines in a second if you are found being dangerous. We value our access greatly and surfing was banned for 20 years and we fought our asses off to get it back. 4. The local kite crew are a great bunch of guys that will also welcome newcomers as long as they have safe practices.
