Do you have anymore info about where this is? What suburb is it near?

I've never heard of the place but I'm not familiar with all the nooks and crannies of Sydney.

Hey Flysurfer,

Congwong beach is too sheltered and offshore = gusty as hell. The bay does work in westerlys but it is still really gusty and onshore. There are much better places to ride.

Congwong is also a nudist beach which is the politically correct way of saying beach for friggin old pedophile men who like boys, so maybe stay away from the beach and the rocks. We used to see em from the boat when we would shelter there in the bay for lunch!

A few crew kite in Yarra Bay which is more open but still quite gusty when there is west in it.

Have fun and stay safe,
