If you are only on Hamilton, you most likley wont get much action.
You will need to have a boat at your disposal to get to a location such as whitehaven.

Have you checked out google earth, the side of the island that gets the SE trades is mostly bush and rock

The wind and the water temp are good, but the whole whitsudays are mountainous islands and not that many beaches suitable for kiting.

Mate i live on hamo and the beaches on the island are no chop. My little bro kites as well and he has sat off and has access to a rib so if you were keen he might be able to take you to henning if the wind is up but the forcast looks like a dud! no wind for another week. Two months ago the wind was reliable now its a bit hit and miss.
