Hi all

Subject title was just to catch your attention.

I'm heading to Narooma for five weeks over summer, just wondering whether to bring a 10m or 7m, or both, and if you get wind most days and average strength?

If anyone would like to recommend any good flat water spots near Narooma, it'd be appreciated. Local rules etc.

I have done a bit of a google maps search and it looks like there's a good spot nearby to the south a bit for flat water.

Cheers in advance.

Just been to Narooma a couple of months ago and no wind unfortunately. But the local guy there, tony, said it's usually very windy. Take the biggest kite you have.

Good luck!

Thanks Mikedobee I thought I must have upset a few locals with my post heading. Yep I've only got a 10m as my biggest so might see if I could borrow a mates 12 for the trip. Do you know any typical summer wind strengths by any chance? Stronger than this time of year maybe? The father in law reckons you get a freo doctor type seabreeze over there through the summer. But he doesn't kite so not sure if this regular seabreeze is strong or not.
