Beach Kites

I do not know the amount of times I have been driving passed one of my local beaches when a kite has caught my eye and to be honest, I wished I was the one flying it.

If you have never flown a kite anywhere, may I suggest you are really missing out.

"Ah that's just for kids. Grown-ups don't fly kites anymore. Kite flying is So Boring!" These are just some of the reasons people say about flying different types of kites.

Truth is, each reason or excuse may not be right. I wonder when they last flew a beach kite if ever.

Recently I took my kite out when it was quite windy. Approximately half an hour later, I had to go home. I was exhausted.

I knew my level of fitness was lacking, however due to the strength of the wind, it took a lot of energy to continue flying. That was a really good day, so much fun!

People fly kites for fun at the beach, in the surf, when they go camping, on holidays, on the snow and ice, in competitions, at festivals, for fishing, even big ships use kites to tow them through the water.
