Go about 16 blocks to the North and there is a small park called Ocean Beach Park which has grills, bathrooms and shelter right at the entrance to a large public beach. I haven't personally flown there, but the site should be good in all winds except from the West. On the beach in front of the Traders Ocean Resort Hotel there is a group of fliers that gather regularly Friday evenings. As with most East Coast Florida sites, it should be avoided when winds are from the West. Contact Dennis Poulin for more information.
Kites are in the air daily from mid morning to early afternoon.
During the week, a half dozen or more AKA members from the Northeast and the Midwest fly and talk kites for hours every day. On the weekend, these 'snow birds' are joined by the locals. Go north 1 mile and keep left at the fork onto Beach Rd. Siesta Beach is on the left after the Fire House. Walk from that end of the lot, through the picnic area and toward the volley ball nets.
