Hi Guys and Girls,
On the back of a highly successful windsurfing clinic in Qld last year. There is a possibility that I can get Matt Pritchard to head back this way. And this time stay a little longer so we can show him around, and run a clinic in NSW or Vic.
This at the moment is by no means confirmed, and i am trying to get a run down on conditions and locations in late november, early december. Ideally, a location that has easy water access, good rigging areas and parking, shelter, toilets etc. and most of all a higher chance of wind in late nov / early dec
What areas suit these requirements?
Thanks in advance

Kyeemagh at the new car park.
There are no toilets or shelter closeby and the beach access isn't that great but its probably the best flat water spot in relation to water conditions, wind and onshore facilities in Sydney.
Sanctuary point / Jarvis bay plenty of facilities and cheap - expensive accommodation. Easy to get to from everywhere.
I think either Hawks Nest or Sanctuary Point would be great places, as long as we got a decent NE to go with it. (Note the lack of an 'e' in 'Hawks' Nest MD?)
I think for gybing practice, Sanctuary Point would be better because you can actually stand waist or shoulder deep in the water while people gybe around you.
SP is not much further traveling from Sydney than to Winda Woppa, and it also means that any people from Canberra can make it there easier.
Hi Guys,
Thanks for the details. Where exactly is sanctuary point?
The way we ran the clinic in Qld last year was a three day weekend. So a get away weekend could work. In a normal season - whats the chance of getting some breeze during late nov early dec?? Mind you we had terrible conditions, so a lot of land training was done, and all participants were stoked at what they took home in the way of information.
Cheers

), you have 200-300m of chest deep water and around a 1.5-2km to the outhe side.
I'd definately be interested in a clinic.
I've been to Sanctuary Point and nearby areas about 4 years ago in Nov/Dec for two consecutive years. Back then I was not into windsurfing or anything that required wind. Both years I remember it was windy as, and decided not to come back as it was just too windy to be at the beach with a toddler.
