- This is a vast sandy bay that curves all the way to Findhorn. On a good day with a westerly wind prevailing onshore, kitesurfing conditions are excellent.

- This is a great spot for windsurfers of all abilities offering a choice of sea surfing or flat water conditions on a large lagoon.
- This is a kiting and windsurfing spot that suits all ability levels, providing consistent winds and, depending on the time you come here, something to suit all interests.
- This place has it all, and whether you are into surfing, windsurfing, catamaran sailing or kitesurfing the conditions will suit. Simply put, if you’re in the area you’d be stupid to miss out on a trip here, and lack of experience is no barrier either as it’s a big, safe area.
- This is a classic windsurfing location with good wind and water in beautiful surroundings. Kiters can come out here, but only during quiet times - kite surfing is not possible at weekends due to the large number of swimmers.
- This is an excellent place for all abilities of wind and kite surfer, as it provides great conditions with well thought out facilities. If all places were this friendly and well thought out, we’d be laughing.
- There aren’t very many kiting or windsurfing spots that are away from the coast in Alaska, but this is one of them and it’s suitable for those with a bit of experience. It’s a freshwater lake and it’s fantastically isolated, just you, the water and the land in sight.
- Just a bit further west than the Dutch Harbor spot, this is good for intermediate and better windsurfers and kiters. It’s a nice friendly spot in some of the most spectacular surroundings you are ever likely to see., and it’s within easy reach of a couple of other places if it doesn’t take your fancy.
- There are some places that make you feel you’re the only person on the water for miles around, and some where you really are the only person for miles around. This is one of the latter, and it’s a good spot for windsurfing or kiting, though it isn’t suitable for beginners.
- By Alaskan standards, this is a small bay looking across to the built up area of Valdez city. By almost everyone else’s standards, this is a wide open space in a beautiful bay, with just the line of a small city across from you. It’s a kiting and windsurfing spot, and everyone from beginners up can find it a good place to be.
- This beach is right where Mineral Creek meets the river, and as with most Alaskan places it feels wild and remote although the town of Valdez is only a short drive away. It’s a place for both kitesurfing and windsurfing, though it isn’t suitable for beginners.
- Just south of Anders Beach, this is a fantastic windsurfing / kiting beach with lots and lots of space. It’s also a popular place, at least for Alaskan values of popular.
- Another remote spot in the unspoilt wilderness that is Alaska, this can be used by kitesurfers and windsurfers of all ability levels.
- Also known as Gustafson Spit, this is just at the south end of Homer Airport and is suitable for kiters and windsurfers who are intermediate level and better. It’s an enclosed bay and provides consistent wind.
- Alaska has to be one of the last unspoilt wilderness areas in the USA, if not the world, and coming here for the stunning scenery alone is well worth the trip. Of course, if you’d rather kite instead of stare at the scenery, this river mouth provides a good location for intermediate and experienced kiters.
- Also known as ‘Guards’ by the locals, this is a very consistent spot but the waves are heavy and can be dangerous if you aren’t experienced enough to manage them. Beginners just shouldn’t even think about it, unless they like being dragged ashore and having the water pumped out of them.
- This is gorgeous spot for surfing, right in the heart of the National Seashore or, if you prefer, the High Dune Wilderness. It’s suitable for everyone and frankly with scenery like this you can forgive it not having the best surfing in the area.
- This is kind of the overspill for Ditch Plains, when that spot gets too crowded surfers head here. It’s pretty consistent, usually fun, and suitable for all levels of experience.
- This is a nice beginners surfing beach, in a location that’s a bit quieter than most other Long Island spots. It’s at its most consistent in the fall, but spring and summer are also decent times to be out here.
- This is another good Montauk spot that can compete with the best Long Island has to offer when it’s on. It’s a bit fickle, but has a good atmosphere and works well during hurricane season.
