I spent a year or two in Charleston. Too bad I knew nothing about kites then (nor did most of us here on the PKF at the time).... plenty of places
to ride. Was one of the better places that uncle sam decided to park his boat...

i like that spot, but some areas have ferocious chop! very cool view not seen by many!

yes there are may spots here and hopefully it will stay that way........last year was a big push to police ourselves up, interact and educate new
pilots as well as beach goers and by standers( kites here draw huge crowds)......for the most part we were successful with only a couple minor
incidents........last July/August time frame it was a Saturday afternoon and I counted 50 plus kites on the water and another 30 on the beach (Phree
was in for a sesh that day)...........there has been a bit of an explosion in the last couple years............

yep kiting past Morris Lighthouse is awesome............didnt have the GoPro Saturday but I will get some footage.................worst part is the
walk back when its cold and your wet but nice to be on water again...........................
