1990 I was working at orchid beach resort for Rainbow beach construction renovating the resort
I had my wave sailing gear with me and one day it was so on ...5-6 foot perfect conditions
rigged up and had a blast all afternoon.
I blew it on one wave and had the feeling just get back on the board fast
kept sailing best conditions
later that night I went up to the bar after dinner and these 2 fishermen came up and talked to me
One of them asked "were you that young guy out there on that windsurfer thing"
I answered yes so much fun
he asked did I see anything I said no but did not have a 100% great feeling butbthe conditions were great
He goes "you did not see that 18foot Tiger Shark following you around all afternoon"
well I did not go out again
From the resort you ar up high and have a great view all the way to the point.....
so in answer to your question yes ...but I would not do it again

As other mentioned… sharks galore however
waddy point gets any S/SE swell and is cross off in southerly so every time I’ve been there I’ve drooled over the down the line wavesailing conditions but in reality you’d need a JetSki as a support to be safe as the sand bank is a bit off shore
