Camber Sands
An OK session on a 12 m — powered-down at the bottom end. Best 14:00–19:00 BST around the midday low (12:00). NO KITING within 2.5 h of the 17:45 high — no usable beach. Partly cloudy, 19°C.
Windguru forecast →Littlehampton
Possible on a 14 m+ — best 14:00–17:00 BST, still working the wide beach from the 11:30 low. Partly cloudy.
Windguru forecast →East Wittering
Marginal — large kites (15 m+)/foil kites, big boards, and gusty. A short 15:00–17:00 BST window ahead of the 18:15 high — no kiting within 2.5 h of high water there (no usable beach). Overcast.
Windguru forecast →Goring
Marginal — large kites (15 m+)/foil kites, big boards. Best 15:00–16:00 BST, timed to duck the 11:30 low — sharp rocks and mussel bed are exposed there, so it's a mid-tide window, not a low-tide one. Overcast.
Windguru forecast →Lancing
Marginal — large kites (15 m+)/foil kites, big boards, and gusty. Best window 14:00–15:30 BST; rideable but discouraged from around 15:30 as the 18:00 high approaches — groynes exposed around high water (or Shoreham next door — easy access by train). Partly cloudy.
Windguru forecast →Uncle Tom's Cabin
Marginal — large kites (15 m+)/foil kites, big boards, and gusty. An early one — best 06:00–08:00 BST around the morning high (06:30). Sunny.
