With the anti-erosion work going on at the Acadia parking lot does anyone know if it's actually open to park there right now?

South Chesterman —where’s everybody? WNW ~25 knots big waves outside and also quite a long walk due to low tide.

South Chesterman: Wave sailing is the best. 3.5 hours wave sailing on 25 knots NW. Waves 2 to 5 feet high. First on the water but later joined by 5 kiters and 3 windsurfers

Toy of the day

Arrived at Dog Beach watching Slappy on 12m at Acadia. Shahab (10m) and Dustin (12m) headed out to Acadia as I hestitated waiting for 8m conditions. Finally caved in and headed out on 12m+surfboard to Upper Acadia to enjoy waist to knee high waves then confined to the shallows as wind dropped. Beautiful 1.5 hr warm sunset session W 16-18.

Super fun wave session up at the Tower Beach break. Small curling waves coming over the sandbar and enough wind to ride them. Beautiful afternoon. Bit of a slog to get up there from Dog Beach but more than worth it.
