Sweet Lunch at Sugar Cove

The last three days I've gotten my windsurfing fix at Sugar Cove, just upwind from Sprecks. Sugar Cove has a very small public right of way access and there isn't much parking or beach, but for those who are staying in the condos there or willing to put up with the tiny parking, can get a sweet treat of smooth rolling summertime swells, without the harsh chop that we often get at Kanaha.

Interestingly, though Sugar Cove is probably only a mile or two upwind from Kanaha, it tends to have much stronger winds. The last two days at Kanaha have been pretty light according to the iWindsurf sensor and judging from a report from someone who sailed there yesterday. By contrast, I sailed Sugar Cove midday yesterday fully wound out on my 4.2 and today on my 4.5. Lots of fun, smooth swell for riding and slashing backside.
