Rules to be followed
Due to hard work from WAKSA to keep access to the beach the following rules are followed by all locals and visitors are expected to respect them.
1. Not kiting on the NE side of the yellow markers
2. landing and launching must not be done from the grass
3. dont rig over the path

There are groups that actively pursue evidence of us going against this to try get us banned. please over look their hypocrisy and save people some hassle by not providing them with an excuse to ban
