Tirrana Way would be the best spot. nice big open pond with plenty of grass to rig up and would be cross onshore to make it easy....

It would be very gusty though.... you get half way out in the middle just cruising and then it rips your arms off as it gully's through the houses.

If you can handle the waves, go to the beach.

If youre a beginner, Westlakes is great as it is very safe, can go on your own but you do learn to surf in gusts....

You can rig on grassed area by the roundabout near the club and carry ya
gear down...or where ever ya can find a spot.
I normally park and rig south of car park in the dirt.....
