Hi guys,

for those who have been kitting around Melbourne for years this might be easy so maybe you can help us, the newbies :)

I'm trying to understand where the kitesurfing beaches are, what wind is the right one (direction) for each location and, maybe, what beaches are more friendly for beginners.

On the other hand, where do you normal check the wind forecast?

Thanks!

Try this great resource, there are others out there also.

For wind, there's lots.

Seabreeze has a weather section

For iphone I use the apps Melbwinds it's a good clear app for realtime wind. For forcast I use vicwinds which takes the info straight from bom but has a nice scroll bar
