Just had a few weeks in Bali including a week at Club Med- Nusa Dua. So glad I finally decided to take my kiting gear as I rode 4 days from 7 in 12-15 knots. Took my 12m Cab Switchblade (you wouldn't want smaller) so had lottsa fun! Most days I was the only one out though the French GM of the resort joined me some days. Only frustration was the wind and tides not being totally in sync so only got out past the reef a little which you need to do a few hours or so either side of high tide. Breeze was steady if not strong and cross on-shore. Still better than nothing in freezing Perth right now! Can therefore recommend Nusa Dua, at least in July and I believe August.

Awww.. am heading to ND with the fam in Sept and wasn't factoring in a kite.

Now you went and got me all anxious about it.

Glad you got a fang. Dunno where the hell the wind is this winter?? Stockpiling for summer I hope!

I'm off with the Fam to Nusa Dua in Sept as well
I was kinda hoping I could hire some gear over there, but wasn't sure if there would be wind.
