Beginner
Perfect flat water on Pamlico Sound — ideal conditions for lessons and learning. Very shallow depth, you can stand for hundreds of meters. Sandy bottom with seagrass patches. Water is warm in summer (78-86°F). The spot is sheltered and conditions are predictable. Large riding area shared with kite school — respect teaching zones.
Stingrays in warm shallow water — do the stingray shuffle. Sea nettles (jellyfish) common in summer. Sharp oyster shells — water shoes recommended. Area shared with many beginners and students — ride with caution. Violent afternoon thunderstorms possible in summer with lightning risk.
