there is no shop unfotunately.
SPOTS. Yeppoon main beach south of the clubbies flags (kite in front of the sailing club) if there is wind you will most likely see kites or winsurfers out. we share the same area so dont pester the windsurfers. just pump your kite on the grass (again south of the sailing club) at the top of the rockwall and walk down. its the easiest way to go. plenty of taps there too.
also you can at any beach however i wouldnt ride at Cooee Bay (lots of rocks underwater) and Kemp Beach (not enough sand and crocs).
Farnborough is great; super long beach with kinda good waves. Emu Park has a few spots too.
might see you down there if the wind is good!
most of the kiters here are more than wiling to help so just sing out if you need a hand or whatever if you venture down.
