Overview

Dogfish Point is a kitesurfing spot near Bellingham, on the east coast of Lummi Island in the Bellingham Channel. This exposed point offers good wind conditions in south to southwest winds. The spot is more advanced due to strong tidal currents in the channel and the relative isolation of the area. Natural setting with views of the San Juan Islands and Mount Baker.
