New information about Marco Island/Tigertail Park from: http://fksa.org/showthread.php?t=12031
I have a lot of photos from this event to process and put up. Here are a few for starters. ![]() A shot from an early morning, chilly session today during the Naples Kiteboarding Reunion at Tigertail Park off Marco Island. I understand the sand bar has substantially grown northward into Big Marco Pass over the last 30 years. ![]() ![]() A screen capture of a pair of dolphins that swam by during my kiting session at Tigertail Park on Thursday morning. A short video clip of the encounter ![]() ![]() I encountered two bald eagles at Tigertail Park yesterday while kiting at the Naples Kiteboarding Reunion. I have seen very few of these birds in SE Florida. I caught this one framed by the kite in the lower center. ![]() The water was deep enough for navigation of small boats around low tide in spots at the north end of the sand bar. The camp sites of the Reunion participants. ![]() It is a long walk in depend on whether you stay on the land the whole way (2.7 miles) or are able to cut a mile off by walking across the lagoon from the parking lot at low tide. Given that this site works best in strong cold fronts, it can be a very cold area too. The air temp. was 50 to 60 F while I was there and I froze my butt off with a 5/4 and heat seeker plus a fleece overcoat while on land. We all were pretty cold. Taking a boat in is best. I would talk to Naples Kiteboarding about boating in there or lessons, they hold the kite instruction concession for the park at: http://www.naplesfloridakiteboarding.com .
