Celebrate National Kite Month and the start of Spring with Kitty Hawk Kites! Experience the sights of our massive 30-to-100-foot kites flying high over Jockey’s Ridge State Park on Friday, April 18th and Saturday, April 19th starting at 10:00 AM.
Viewers are encouraged to park at Jockey’s Ridge Crossing or Jockey’s Ridge State Park to enjoy the Kite Festival. Both parking lots are about a 10 minute walk through the dunes to the festival.
Yes! We encourage all furry friends to come; we just ask that animals be leashed. Per Jockey’s Ridge State Park regulations, all pets are required to be leashed while on State Park property.
Jockey’s Ridge State Park offers gator rides up the dunes to enjoy the kite festival and beautiful views! We strongly encourage to call ahead to plan a gator ride, as Park Rangers must follow a strict schedule while on park property.
Please call (252) 573-6108 for more information on accommodations that can be made for your party.
