BEST WINDSURFING
All a skilled windsurfer needs is a prevailing wind and steady diet of waves to catch some air. On Nantucket Sound, wind speeds exceeding a brisk 20 knots are the norm, and the shallow water helps boarders mount waves quickly. Kalmus Park Beach, in Hyannis, is a board-sailing destination in spring, summer, and fall. If that lot's already full or the crowds get to you, try nearby West Dennis Beach, accessible from a public lot, or Forest Beach at the end of Forest Beach Road in Chatham, a few miles up the Cape and also with limited public parking.
