Description
Sand City is an enjoyable site worth exploring, particularly if you're looking for a fun place to soar and improve your kiting skills. While experienced pilots may find the flying limited, the site is perfect for anyone who wants to enjoy a peaceful flight.
Landing at Sand City can be a tricky affair due to strict state park regulations. Most of the ridge is off-limits for top landing, except for regulated launch areas in the north which require P3 pilot certification and membership with the local club. Alternatively, you may choose to top land at the unregulated area. However, landing on other parts of the ridge may result in a ticket from the park rangers and may also harm the ice plant and plover nesting areas. You may land on the beach as long as you maintain a safe distance from the water. But, keep in mind that your options for relaunching may be limited if you land too far away from designated areas, and you may have to hike or kite through the sand.
