(Short time reader, first time writer)

Im in Melb and coming up to Marooch next week (21 May).
Not coming up for anything inparticular except to sample some of the brew as me and a mate got a return flight for $25...too cheap not to go.

Im pretty new to the sport, and havent been out for a while, so im trying to work out if its worth to bring my own kite gear + wettie up there or not. (12m Cabr bow)

What i could gather, any accom near coolum/marooch sounds good. Are there any bay's in particular you can recommend?
We wont have transport, so im trying to get a place to stay within 1km of good kite surfing + bar area.

Also which is the most "reliable" link for wind forecast for the area.

Any advice would be helpful.
Much thanks

Thanks Fitzy, thats great qual info.
Google earth link is unreal, i looked for kiters on the water..but none there.

Thanks for the weather link, can you tell me which location i should look at for marooch?
Is it "outheast Coast Waters, Double Island Point to Point Danger:" or "Hervey Bay Waters"? I couldnt work out which is the closest.

Taa heaps

Check out Cairns.. We operate Kite adventure tours north of this region & from April to November the conditions and location are in our view the best in OZ. Good kite beach and local scene with plenty of support only metres from the beach in the form of Kite Right. (Chris is the owner). He will also give you an unbiased opinion of the conditions and Adventures on offer through Australian Kite Surfari. The Surfari company actively advertises on a regular basis with seabreeze so you can click on the banner to get re directed or go straight to australiankitesurfari.com.au

Contact Ant or Rob.

Customers rave about the adventure and are amazed at the consistent and perfect kite conditions. Hope this is helpful..

If you want the most consistant winds this time of year it has to be cook town. Don't be put of by the seabreeze readings as they are taken from the airstrip which is really sheltered. I normally add 10-15 kts to the cairns wind for what it is actually doing. You do need a 4wd to get to the best beaches though.

Other than that check out four mile beach (southern end) in port douglas the friendliest kiters in Australia are there. I spent last winter there and had the best time.
