The water is just like any water on Lake Michigan. It can go from crazy and super narly overhead on a northeast gale to flat calm glassy water on a SSW wind. Sometimes after it rains the water will smell bad from Milwaukees so called water treatment plant that dumps shit in the lake but just wear a wetsuit and you whould be fine. Up by the north jettie its very shallow for a long way out but be careful since on the Zion end of the north buoy theres a nasty rip current so stay away. The widest beach in the area. It is very wide and long and a great kiting beach (sand too loose for land kiting unless it just rained). There is a little creek that you have to walk across to get to the beach but once you are there its worth it. The beach has a few people in the dead of summer but is never really crowded unless it is a holiday. And in the off season it is only kiters. SW wind is ridable but gusty and SSW wind is pretty clean for the most part but is cleanest on the most south end of the beach. SSW can bring some calm water. East is strait onshore and can be tough to get out of the surf go to Montrose on an East. North is side shore but gusty and NNE is cleaner but still a little gusty. If it is North or NNE just go to Zion. Mostly sunny with little rain. Very warm in the summer but cold in spring and fall. Water: Shallow, Flat, Chop. Features: Toilet, Parking. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
