Hey mate,

Townsville isn't bad. I moved here from Perth with my 9m which is wayyyy too small. Conditions generally require a 12m on average id say. The most popular spot is Pallarenda, due East of the airport. It's not the best spot in the world but it does the job. The wind is usually direct on-shore and when it gets windy its pretty choppy - okay if your experienced but if your learning its hard to get an edge upwind. Having said that, have had some great sessions there. Beach access 14 at robertsons park is where you want to go to rig up with a grassed area, toilet block and tap. Theres another spot near the river mouth to the south of the city which is apparently pretty good though I have never kited there myself. within 30 mins south of Tville is Cungulla which can be kiting heaven in the right tidal conditions. Just over an hour south is Alva beach which is where the nats where last held. Again, an awesome spot with the right conditions and usually isnt too packed. Up north there is Lucinda and Cairns if you can be bothered driving. www.intheloopkiteboarding.com/ This is a good website for advice on local locations. Cheers!

Stingers from about now through to March I think. Good point though - stinger suit required. Crocs? well, no worse than the threat of shark anywhere else around our coastline.
