Windjammer park is a great place to go when the wind is from the ESE to the WSW. The wind will be straight on and might be a bit of a challenge for beginners to get off the beach. Setting up, launching and landing is on nicley managaed grass. Be mindful of other park users. Access from the park to the water is easy. Be mindful of the tide.
