Planing a kite trip to Cairns and wondering what month we could expect the best wind any advice would be great.
hey BennyG my name is KennyG...i made the movie KENNY, where i travelled around the world checkin out the toilets and we went to cairns and i was told that the winds there are tradewinds. hope this helps![]()
We was up there last year around mid August. for 1 week
Ended up renting a place at yorkeys directly across the road from the beach. Originally planned to stay in Cairns but soon changed that.
The guys in the kite shop at Yorkys were really good and seemed to be open all night.(google their number) They can give you the number of the Woman who seems to rule the holiday rental world up there. Heaps of nice beaches to kite between Yorkys and Port Douglas. Yorkeys Locals weren't to friendly at first but once we made the effort to talk to them they were all good. So unless you can self land and launch ok, talk to the locals first.
We kited every day in 15 to 25 max. Had a great trip. Going back this year for the Dantree trip, check that out you may just want to do that instead, again the Kite shop at Yorkeys can help you out there.
the rental lady you are talking about who rents a lot of units along the beach is named Trish and her number is 07 4055 8855. she lives directly across the road from where everyone launches from. Tell her Brett sent you
