About Sterling State Park

Water depth becomes overhead within 30 meters from shore. Good for hydrofoil. Waist-high blown-out waves on 20+ kts days, but beware that the shorebreak is very close to trees. Beware August's harmful algae blooms - if you can easily see a matte of algae on the surface, stay out of the water. It is most concentrated at the shore and will be obvious.
