Dude - that's heaven! You're gonna miss that if you end up over here - that's for sure. There's nothing like that to my knowledge in Alberta. Maybe a farmer's field but no mile long stretch of sand.

Both are fantastic beaches ... so long, smooth, flat and HARD. I did 80 miles in one session couple of weekends ago, and turned less than 25 times the whole afternoon ... I wasn't using the whole length of the beach either.

The beach is so hard a friend set a kiteboard speed of over 46mph (Access 6m) last year. Gawd I've never seen anything so scary ...

If you are ever over in the UK have words with Kiteboyza. He is the chairman of CLSC the club that allows access to both beaches, and keeps these fantastic resources open for us!

If you go along that beach, pop over the estuary you get to my other playground Pendine

Kiteboyza,

Looks like a great spot. I dragged the marker closer to the roads on the left. If it's not right, just drag and drop it to the right spot, after clicking the "Edit Spot" button (the pencil & paper icon).

Thanks

Bill
