Salishan? I would say b&b's can be good although I don't know of any.

Opted for Sauvies... coast would have been more epic but its hard to ignore 16-24 at Scappoose and a 35 minute drive.
Pretty windy, plenty for the 9m. Chop, and gusty early.... but sun and PBR made it all better.

Thanks for making the effort... maybe we just need to wait awhile longer.

sorta... classic sauvies big kites and glides were prevalent. I got about 30 minutes total on the small board with my 11m and Garret's 15m.
The current was so strong that I think it was only blowing 5mph but you could still go upwind like crazy... the water was flat and buttery. All in all, a nice way to spend a warm spring afternoon. 
Probably try again tomorrow, think its supposed to be better...

Hayling Island, it's South coast about an hour from London. It is a very special spot, I had no idea kiting over here would be this good. It isn't very cold either, but it is cloudy most of this week. 4/3 suit, no hood, gloves, or booties.

Next weekend I'm going to check this place out if the wind looks good:
