Hey guys and gals I am moving to OZ/Canberra and I am looking for places to kite on the coast as close by as possible with reliable/ish wind.
1) I have to live in Canberra.
2) I understand it may be a long drive for a session.
been kiting 5 years moved from brighton UK to NYC and now to Canberra
Seems like I am getting futher from the sea .
I am considering getting a land board as well and finding some parks for local sessions if the wind in Canberra is not to gusty ?
any help would be great thanks.

Just search 'Lake George' for a recent discussion, not too promising though.

From Canberra you'll be approx 2hrs from Batemans Bay and within a further 1 hr north or south there is a whole range of magnificent beaches. You couldn't go wrong in winds from Southerly through to nor'easter. Driving will be a pain but pick your days when the winds up.

Great part of the world explore and enjoy it.

Canberra used to have a couple of guys that would go out on the eastern part of Lake Burley Griffin. Here is a old link from my time there, so you may get something from it.
