05-12-02 duckman: Kiting banned mid June till mid September. When there is wind the place is very crowded with windsurfers. Only works on a NW wind and has one breaking wave. At high tide small beach and tricky launch area. It works so rarely and only on a NW wind that I cant believe somebody listed it. If you are on the Cape and it blows NW (rare other than late fall) I guess its worth a drive by but you've been warned.
