Camber Sands - What's going on?

My flabber is well & truly ghasted.

I drove for 90 mins today to Camber Sands, hoping to play with my new 12m kite in the light breeze. Following on from the fun last week at Ynyslas where I got dragged through the sand, I thought Camber would be ideal.

Got to the normal car park (by the cafe) to see a sign: No Kitesurfing, kiting, or windsurfing.

I was turned away and sent a mile towards Lydd - free parking but shingle banks and groynes. Definitely not kite-friendly.

I'm sure I've windsurfed off the sands in the summer before. Are there any fellow Southern Softies who know what's going on? We are not amused!
