Destination Summary

New York - Montauk

Napeague is a bit off the beaten path, being located in Montauk, Long Island almost 2.5 hours drive from New York City. It is a flat water lagoon that works for all wind directions and provides an epic backdrop for big air kiting. The best big air conditions are during spring and fall months when storm fronts roll through and provide strong punchy winds. Weather temps during these months can be quite cold and wet suits are required. The spot has no infrastructure and requires a car to get there.
