Stoney Beach is a kitesurfing spot just west of Lawrencetown Beach, on Nova Scotia's Atlantic coast. This more discreet beach than its neighbour Lawrencetown offers similar conditions but with fewer crowds. Facing south-southwest, it catches the prevailing SW winds. The spot is favoured by local kitesurfers looking to avoid the crowds at the main spot. Sandy bottom with some rocky areas.
