Windsurfing in America: 5 Best Destinations to Catch Some Air

Jesse Schmitt
Windsurfing requires four things: wind, water, a windsurfing board, and the constitution to get up on that board and perform. If you feel like you've got the stuff to make windsurfing music, you should consider visiting one of these five places.

Windsurfing in America: Merritt Island Florida: One of the biggest and best places to show off your windsurfing abilities is Florida for obvious reasons. The wind and the water on the coast near Cocoa Beach are quite striking. One place to consider in Merritt Island Florida is the Calema Windsurfing & Water Sports facility. Operating at Kelly Park in Merritt Island Florida, Calema can help get you up and on your way for the beginning windsurfer or for even the more experienced windsurfer.

Windsurfing in America: Worthington MN: While some may not consider a place like Minnesota to be windsurfing worthy the fact is that every year in Worthington Minnesota they hold the Worthington Windsurfing event. Another really nice thing about windsurfing at Worthington is the fact that whole families are involved. Beginner, intermediate, or professional, the windsurfing at Worthington couldn't be better.

Windsurfing in America: San Francisco CA: While you may need to get it back if you've left your heart in San Francisco; you can leave your windsurfing equipment here all year long. St Francis Yacht Club is one of many great spots to get out on the water and get your surf on in San Francisco. St. Francis Yacht Club also hosts windsurfing events here at different times of the year.

Windsurfing in America: Mayo Beach MD: The wind may get to you but the surf in Maryland is totally happening all summer long. Check out Mayo Beach Maryland for your windsurfing inclinations in the busy summer months. One spot to go check out for your Maryland windsurfing is the Baltimore Area Boardsailing Association (BABA). BABA also hosts windsurfing events all summer long.

Windsurfing in America: Fond du Lac WI: A final spot for your windsurfing intentions is one you may never have considered; Fond du Lac Wisconsin. The Wind power Championships are held each September in Fond du Lac and this is where many of the pros come all year long to train, compete, and perform.


Windsurfing in America: Conclusion:
While windsurfing may be one of the undiscovered joys of the water world, it is never too late to get up on your board and begin your life's windsurfing adventures. Consider these five windsurfing destinations or another one closer to your home!

    Don't forget Hood River, Oregon. You haven't seen windsurfing till you've seen it there. Simply amazing!
