Iverson Trail Preserve is a kitesurfing spot at the north end of Camano Island, on Livingston Bay in the northern Puget Sound, Washington State. The beach faces east and is mainly used in winter with south to southeast winds during pre or post-frontal conditions. The spot suits all levels thanks to cross to cross-onshore wind. Watch for tides: in winter, high tide can reach 4 meters, flooding the beach and re-floating logs. The beach becomes usable again about 2 hours after high tide.
Cold Puget Sound water (7-13°C), 4/3 wetsuit minimum, 5/3 with hood and gloves recommended in winter. Bay waters relatively calm with moderate chop in south wind. Tidal currents can exceed 2.5 knots (4.5 km/h). Sandy and muddy bottom. Wind is typically cross to cross-onshore, making it easy to return to shore. Mainly winter conditions with irregular and gusty pre and post-frontal winds.
Beginner
Open all year round
