Really, for light, possible marginal winds, neither! In light winds there is a tendency to go downwind. It isn't feasible to say from which direction the side shore thermals will be coming from but in the case of the spot by Dania Pier or Ft. Lauderdale Beach you have to be able to stay upwind. In the case of Dania, there's the pier to the south and we're banned along John U. Lloyd Park to the north. In Ft. Lauderdale, we have the narrow boat launching corridor with strict out of bounds areas to the north and south. I have never kited there myself but I recall some kiters go in the vicinity of 87th St. on North Miami Beach. You want to stay out of Surfside to the north where I recall kiters are not welcome. At least in this area of North Miami Beach you should be able to have a bit of leeway if the wind is light. You might want to clear things with the lifeguards first. Hope you get some wind!
