What we look for at Point Possesion Bluffs

Wind direction

NE (35°) → E (100°)

The wind must blow from within this arc. Direction is the same for both wings.

Ideal speed

8–18 mph

Ceiling · Paragliding

≤ 19 mph base · gusts ≤ 23

Top of the range for paragliding (any rating). Switch wings up top to compare. Hang gliders hold roughly 10 mph more than paragliders.

A low (~100 ft) coastal bluff on the Kenai side of Cook Inlet, across from Anchorage. It is not a documented club launch. In theory a steady onshore NE-through-E breeze could ridge-soar the face, but nobody publishes it as a flying site. Access is remote with no road: boat, plane, or ATV. Watch the extreme Cook Inlet tides and dangerous mudflats, and check with Arctic Air Walkers before attempting.
