You can launch only on the backside/east side. You have to watch out for kayaks, paddle boards, swimmers, snorkelers and the occasional shark. It is best to ride outside the buoys.
Since they lifted the ban there have been some incidents/issues with riders doing crazy things, such as crashing kites on the beach, self launching on the crowded beach, jumping/tricks close to shore upwind of the beach, etc.
Some of the windsurfers are friendly to kiters and even know how to assist in launching/landing. It can get very crowded with both windsurfers and kiters on a windy day. Also, when the tide is high there is very little sandy beach to set up.
