A Great Place to Fly a Kite

Kids can fly kites too!

Maxwelton beach is often windy and makes a great place to fly a kite. Like most waterfront locations on Whidbey Island, the sea breeze makes it ideal for kite flying. Add in a playground, sandy beach, BBQ, and picnic tables and you have special place indeed.

Also, try Fort Casey, Freeland Park, & Double Bluff Beach
