The big, white sand beach and the small wave ocean waters of the Gulf make Biloxi one of the top kiting destinations. Nevertheless, you will be surprised of how little people know of this spot and you will be pleased to have almost the entire beach to yourself!!
The winds are usually frontal, so it’s best to have a small kite of 12 m/40 ft, although during spring, when the winds turn southeast and especially summer, when the winds decent, large kites (16-20 m/53-66 ft) will enhance the excitement. Biloxi has a subtropical climate, heavily influenced by the Gulf of Mexico.
