Windsurfing near Coyote Point

Nearby Windguru Forecasts

I sailed here once in August and it was great. 15-20mph winds. I rented a rig from the shop right next to the water (Very friendly and helpful). Boardsports School & Shop moved into the former ASD WIndsurfing location in late summer of 2007 and have a fully stocked retail shop and rental facility right on the beach. You can rent all sail sizes (complete rigs all rigged up and ready to go - all skinny 100% carbon masts) of Hot, Naish, North, and Loft as well as all size boards from beginner through small shortboard. They also rent wetsuits, harnesses, kayaks, and stand up paddle boards.

Great spot. Nice county park with alleged hot showers, $5.00 entrance fee. Great place to sail from March - Oct. Great days feature wind from the Northwest and thermal action from inland heating while Coyote remains relatively cooler. Wind from the Southwest is a bad sign, as is very hot weather on the Peninsula or days when it's socked in by fog. Consider Candlestick-Point for hot days and Palo Alto for the fogged in / Southwest days.

The launch in the park at Coyote is for windsurfing only - no kiters. A few kiters will launch from the power line spot, but most kiters are down the road at 3rd avenue.
