Steamer Point (Avon Beach)

Steamer Point is situated on the eastern side of Avon beach has everything you need for an awesome session. There is a pay and display car park is at beach level although this only has parking for a small number of cars so in peak season latecomers may need to park a little further away. There is also a hight restriction of 2m on this carpark. There is a Windsurfing Club hot situted in fron tof the carpark though most Windsurfers go to the actaul Avonn Beach spot situated a few hundred yards to the west of this spot. The facilities around the beach are excellent. There is a restaurant, café and beach shop selling equipment for crabbing as well as the usual buckets and spades. There are public toilets with showers and disabled facilities and even a first aid point. Avon Beach is a good bet for a steady day's windsurfing / kite surfing. It gets busy when the conditions are good. You can pretty much guarantee that along this section of coastline, Avon Beach will be the easiest spot to windsurf or kitesurf. Unlike Southbourne or Highcliffe, there is no challenging shorebreak and generally not much water moving around. The above factors make Avon Beach very suitable for everyone from beginners to advanced windsurfers and kitesurfers.
