Looks doable from googleearth.com. That falls in the mysterious, thinly populated part of the NW coast. You might also ask on the NW Florida forum. Some of the guys in the College Forum might have some ideas IF FSU has a club. Not sure they do yet.

Default Keaton

My son and I kited there one time on our way to St. George. The beach is pretty small and could be a little sketchy at high tide. It was a nice place ride when you get out there. The wind sensor is right there and is very accurate. They have bathrooms, showers and picnic tables nearby. Google earth would show the good wind directions. They filmed a Kite DVD there onetime, I know Alex knows which DVD it was on.

Default A nice place to hang out!

Compared to the regular beach crowd, the place was actually quiet and a difference from the rest of the florida beaches. it is actually quite nice and would make the perfect place to go to once in a while.
