3. Water & Air Temperature:

Cape Hatteras sits right out in the Ocean just 30 miles from the Gulf Stream and that keeps air and water temperatures comfortable all through November. While you’re not going to be taking sessions in boardshorts – the right wetsuit will have you toasty warm all day long. With air temps hovering between 50 and 70 degrees – it’s game on!

4. Different wind directions mean a whole different playground:

During November, the prevailing wind direction is usually NW, N or NE. These directions open up a whole different playground and you can do all of your favorite downwinders in reverse! The different direction also opens up completely new spots such as the “Backside of The Slick”. Find out why the back side of “The Slick” is our favorite flat water kite spot
