Steady winds, occasionally gusty. North wind onshore on the bay side and offshore on the ocean side. There is no bay side access in long beach, only ocean side so wind must be from 90-180 degrees to be kiting here.
Take the Belt Pkwy east to Sunrise Hwy. Follow Sunrise Hwy to Long Beach Rd., Rockville Centre. Make a right heading south on Long Beach Rd. Take it all the way to the beach (about 10 miles).
Absolutely no kiting in Long Beach from June to September, life guard rules. Local kiters only kite outside of Beach Park times, which are 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. during the summer season. This is NOT a kite beginners spot. Experienced kites only should venture to Long Beach. The locals take this spot very seriously and will inform you of the rules/regulations if you clearly are not an experienced kiter. There have been a few kite accidents here from non-seasoned kiters, so please keep clear of Long Beach unless you can handle big waves, current, rocks and buildings.
