Parrish Park is a great place to ride if the wind is right. The launch spot is the beach area on the other side of the bridge. You can ride here in almost any wind direction except for NW which is strait onshore. It tends to be gusty here if the wind is below 15mph or anything out of the West. It is best on a strong SE wind which is offshore. Good before and after cold fronts. Good East coast spot in West winds.
