We were up at Denham this time last year and the SEasters were pretty sweet. There are places to kite in all wind directions too. I kited Coral Bay this time 2 years ago and it was pretty good, Exmouth should be good too and warmer. I wanna go up soon too hopefully.
You'll get something

I kite around the corner from the dolphin interaction, good onshores on anything east. If its sw then Denhams on. There are so many bays and set ups that its just a matter of looking at the wind and going for it. If you don't have a 4wd, denham and MM are the go. Stay at Monkey Mia dolphin resort or Denham, if your coming up in the holidays book before hand it gets chokkers with touro's. When you get here ask for Ian from CALM and we'll hook up.
Don't know what July holds, if I had a direct line to Hughie I'd be stoked but unfortunately I don't. Can tell you though that you will get more wind up here than down there. Bring a good wetty we're down to about 17-18 C in the water at the moment. Good thing though is the big stripey buggers with large teeth move off to warmer water.
