Hi All,
I am moving to Greenwich from the UK in June and so am wondering if Tod's Point or any other places near there are good spots for Kitesurfing and if there are many other people who kite in that area?
Thanks,
Dave

Greenwich is off limit to out of towners so I'm not sure of the access, most kite from Norwalk /Fairfield towards the east.Or you'll be close to Long Island and the wind there is much better/frequent .Gilgo, etc. New York kite center is in Amity NY.

At a median selling price of 2.1 million we don't see many kiters from Greenwich, they're more into the ratrace in NY city lol
