Searched but no info found...
Anyone know if it's worth taking a couple of kites? May go there the second week for 2 weeks. TIA

a little further north but man its worth it:

I doubt anyone who lives there will tell you it's a good time of year.

This is the hot tropical cyclone season and there are no reliable trade winds, but it is stinger season

Winter months are the best for the SE trades, just like the rest of the north qld coast, fiji etc

That windswell vid will be in winter and it's a 700k north!

In general the islands of the Whitsundays are not a good kiting destination, there are a couple of places that are great, but it's tidal and most are rocky and coral foreshore with large hills on the islands and some fast tides between the islands.
If you going there for another reason by all means take kite gear, but if planning a kite holiday there are many better places in OZ

Amazing the contrast of hill inlet at low tide compared to high tide, never see that on a brochure

Summer is the best for wind!!! If its blowing 15 at mine it will be 25 on the islands. As for stinggers, don't worry bout them unless you plan on body dragging!!
