Old Bar is a place where a lot of locals in the Foster area hang out, big shallow are in the lake there, great for learning I'm told.
There is an area down in Smiths lake that is good for learning too, but I would recommend you meet up with the locals and stick to the lakes until you feel confident enough to tackle the ocean.
Check the link out below, it has details of Ben Cox's road trip through the area, pics are in the gallery too.
