Coronation trip.

My Mates from Queensland migrate there every year around early december. They are "high wind junkies" though. I've been there with them a year or so ago before i Started sailing they seem like a real good bunch a dudes that sail there. A friend recently told me that you get all levels of sailors there from first timers to experts. I don't really know much but it seems to cover all bases, good wind, nice off shore swell and some good flat water in the bay. It's like a windsurfing utopia, you and the kids will have a ball!!

camp site is fantastic. Drop pit toilets and barbeques both in very good condition.

I went to corros first time last summer with mates. the sailing is fantastic.

Beach is average for swimming so may have to bring some toys for the kids.... a quad bike would do the trick, it'd be fun cruising the dunes. maybe a kite?

gero is 20 mins away so wife can take them in while your out sailing. perfect.

I went this year at the end February for five weeks and it was great, holidays had finished so most of the tourist were gone and it was just me and the locals and the odd tourist. The water and wind was excellent it blew every day(20-40knots) that i was there, i took one day of because the smallest sail i had was a 4.7 and the wind was way to strong even for that. Coronations was good but got quite busy at times, and unless you are a confident jumper it might prove somewhat of a challenge...if you don't jump yet you will be by the time you get back. I spent most of my time in Geraldton itself sailing St Georges beach and Sunset beach, these were excellent spots for the intermediate sailor. St Georges for is flat water bump and jump, just watch out for the crayfish pots the ropes will pull you up pretty quick and Sunset for it beginner wave sailing. The caravan park at sunset beach backs right onto the water, just rig up carry your gear 15m and your in the water. I also stayed in a cottage($400 p/w for the cottage way cheaper then the caravan park) at Pt Moore for a few weeks, Pt Moore has pretty good sailing just watch out for the kiters and stay away from Hells Gates. The locals were all friendly offering lots of advice, tips and hospitality i would suggest you go and see Rik at Sailwest for all the info on local spots.

This will be the best holiday you will have in Australia...Well it was for me anyway, I'll be back again in Feb 2010....Here is a pic of Coronations in its glory.
