Gear & clothing

Gear · 13-knot average winds suit 14-17m kites for lighter riders and beginners. A twintip or directional board works well in the flat water conditions.

Clothing · A 3-2mm wetsuit is appropriate year-round, though summer months (Dec-Feb) may only require a 2mm or spring suit. Water temperatures range from 16°C in winter to 23°C in summer.

Crowd & etiquette

Respect fishing lines and nets commonly found here, and stay clear of swimmers in designated areas. Give way to any vessel traffic and keep a safe distance from the rocky headland.
