Main Watersports' Beach Texa City Levee Kitesurfing Beach
The Texas City Levee Riding Area is where Houston Kiteboarding teaches kiteboarding, kitefoil, wingfoil, and eFoil. This is 2 square miles of waist deep water with deep water entrances for foiling up to 100cm mast length. Best on S, SE, E, NE, N winds...No west wind.
The Texas City Levee Kitesurfing beach is located off the Texas City Levee Skyline Drive road 1.5 miles North of the Texas City Dike Road. There is one large hump in the road with speed bumps and the riding location is located on the waterfront side with blue trash cans. The 40 foot green grassy hill makes for the perfect stadium seating to see all your buddies getting in on the action. 

Mosquito Island
Hydrofoil and Twin-tip best on SW, S, SE, E.  Rig kites on the grassy area to the west of the shelly beach.  There is a shoal of shell on the east side that goes out about 1/2 mile into the bay that you cannot see on deep water days.  Great spot!

Dike Mile 4 Riding Area
Deep water Hydrofoil Twin-tip...Any Wind Direction.  Beach launch.  Drive onto the beach and rig right next to your car.  This area gets busy on weekends in the summer but weekdays and  winter riding is phenomenal!  Keep in mind there are tanker waves so don't park your car right next to the water.  

5-Mile Slick Area
On a north or south wind the leeside of this Dike is butter smooth and offers a 5mi long slick to excellent riding.  The best direction is a N or NE as the north winds are stronger and the south side of the dike is deeper for throwing massive tricks.  The entrances and launches vary but on a north wind the best is the small beach located at about mile 1.5 down the dike.  rig and launch in the small field next to the parking lot and enter the water on the small beach on the south side of the dike. 

Tanker Surfing Area
Location of easiest Tanker surfing break for north bound boats. This is where we take new foilers for their first tanker surfing rides.  We call this the kiddy pool area because it is so easy to catch waves here.  It is close enough to the end of the dike that some people actually paddle out on SUPs or ride their efoils out to do some foil surfing.
