Bayside
États-Unis · New Jersey
Bayside in Lavallette, located on the shores of Barnegat Bay in New Jersey, is a kitesurfing spot favored by local riders for its easy access and consistent wind. This calm water area, protected from the ocean's large swells, provides an ideal setting for beginners or those looking to progress in a relaxed atmosphere.
The spot is close to the bayside beaches of Lavallette, particularly those at the end of Reese Ave and Washington Ave. It is an authentic place where the kitesurfing community regularly gathers, especially during the spring months when the wind is most reliable.
The ideal wind for this spot is from the Northwest (NW) or West (W), creating a side-shore configuration relative to the orientation of the bay. The water is generally flat due to the protection of Barnegat Bay, with some chop when the wind gets stronger. The launch is done directly from the bayside beach, near designated swimming areas like those at Reese Ave. There is no official dedicated launch area, but riders often use the free spaces near the parking lots. The tides slightly influence the depth but do not drastically change the quality of the spot.
