If you want good winds everyday, and great locations to sail, forget the east and come to west OZ. Ive lived in both areas and believe me, the West is heaps better for windsurfing and kite surfing.

Well why not the west coast but where do i have to go ? i don't know WA at all ?
And my smaller kite is 12.1 mach 1 so i don't want to go where wind blow 30 knots every day
Thanks for your advise

i lived in Hervey Bay for a year - it rocks - when the wind blows.
WA is far more consistent. Lancelin is probably (one of) the most perfect place to kite in the country.
North Queensland in the winter (August)
Go to

have fun, lucky one
