I recieved a response which states:

While kiteboarding is permitted at the Dry Tortugas NP, Kiteboards are under the same regulation as any other similar type vessel. You will need to obtain a boat permit upon arrial. We are an off-shore location per USCG regulations. As such you must have the required safety equipment (PDF which must be worn while underway and a noise making device such as a whistle or horn). Bush Key is closed due to nesting seabirds and the kite must be kept at a distance that does not harass or molest the wildlife. You will recieve a full safety briefing upon your arrival.
