Where to launch

The best places to launch are on the ocean side (winds with East in them) or by the High Pines area, which is about a mile south of the Powder Point bridge (for SW winds).  This location requires a Town of Duxbury sticker for year round access.  Please respect this rule and buy a sticker if you plan on kiting here.

DO NOT launch where windsurfers do on the Duxbury side of the Powder Point Bridge.
 
Please do not kite from the far side of the Powder Point bridge.  As appealing as it may be, you are too close to other people, the parking lot, and the bridge... too much can go wrong.

Restrictions

Do not kite on the Duxbury side of the Podwer Point bridge.  The local community strongly recommend that you not kite on the opposite side of the bridge due to possible dangers.

Please buy a town beach sticker to kite at the High Pines area.
