I arrived in Melbourne 2 days ago with my kite. I would like to know where I can go to kite surf next couple of days as I am on Holidays for couples of weeks before to start working.

Thanks,

Vince

PS: I do not have a car yet!

LOL
Have you thought about going to the south side of the bay??
Northerly wind = gusty on the north side of the bay. Very basic equation. Go down south and you will find plenty of flat water and very constant wind. Northerlies rock!!

ha, ha ha ha ha.

Sorry mate, but that must suck.
I do have sympathy I used to catch the train from Melb to Geelong then the bus to Torquay when I was sixteen and that was just to surf for the day.
