Whidbey Island's bay-facing coastline is sheltered within Puget Sound, offering protected freshwater conditions. The shore faces south toward the bay, with dense forest coverage dominating the inland areas. Residential development visible along the upper shoreline indicates moderate human activity and potential boat traffic during peak seasons. This location experiences very low wind reliability at 4.0% with average winds of just 5.7 knots, making consistent kitesurfing difficult. East winds would provide side-shore conditions, though consistent wind events are rare. Water temperatures average 11°C, requiring appropriate thermal protection. The shallow bay with visible mudflats and sandy areas provides beginner-friendly conditions when wind materializes, with minimal wave exposure. This spot suits only occasional kiters during rare favorable wind windows, rather than regular session planning. The combination of protected waters, shallow depths, and residential proximity makes this suitable for beginners on the rare windy days, but the extremely low reliability limits its practical utility as a primary kitesurfing destination.
