Hi,
Does anyone know when windy season is in Raglan, New Zealand?
My cousin lives in Hamilton and I want to tie a visit in with kiting.
Cheers

NZ got wind all year round. Raglan good with almost anything westerly 10knots and above (5knots of current - talk to locals about staying safe - its super fun but you need a plan if things go wrong and current goes out for about 1km and can dump you in impact zone. Summer warmer (dec - march) but plenty of wind in winter too. njoi
