problem w/ this area is that every beach thinks they are sunset beach.. :)

Yeah. There are two Sunset Beaches.
You are both right. The Sunset bch. just north of Blind Pass is some of the BEST waves around on most NW winds. The problem is, the current is brutal in there, and it's hard to milk it because the side shore drift is ripping you downwind.
Usually, once you go south and hit Upham, the waves are still good, but the wind goes to crap on NW, especially NNW or N.

Sunset (up north) is cool. I am hoping to go up there with Danny this coming week on the cold front.

SB has the best onshore flat water kiting in the area. Small launch area though.

Smaller than small. :-?

I'll be there, with my lines stretched all over the place, to help compound the problem a bit more... ;) Hope to see you guys!

Don't listen to Brian... He doesn't know what he's talkin' about.

Sunset beach sucks. You DON'T want to ride there. :)

It probably does suck. I will have to find out, for myself. :D
