Hi people! My name is Pepo, I come from Spain, I plan to be in Gold Coast in October or November during 6 months and I want to take my windsurfing gear with me.. but I need to know about the wind conditions in that area of Australia ... like: range of sails I need to take with, best spots for windsurfing and kind of spots.. Im a freestyler but I like wave ridding too!
All info about traveling with windsurfing gear or something else is welcome!
Much Thanks guys!

See us in the water!

Hi mate,

the wind is not so strong as in Tarifa or Canarian Islands, so prepare yourself a big wave gear (~90l + board, depends on how much do you weight) and sail range from 4.2 - 5.8. That would be my choice.

There is plenty of good freestyle spots on the GC: train, KFC or Shearwater (www.google.com.au/maps/place/Shearwater+Esplanade,+Runaway+Bay+QLD+4216/@-27.9107805,153.4054878,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x6b910e16391710d9:0xab09f76e9351f9b9!8m2!3d-27.911035!4d153.407683?hl=en)

I hope this helps!
