when we lived up there, my dad would sail at back beach.
hearsons cove( for easterlies in winter) but take off near mangroves near parking area because it will be hard, when easterlies really strong withnel bay (but very rocky so be care full when launching). dampier harbor for the westerlies and south westerlies.
if you have a boat and wanna do wave sailing angel island is good, but go between angel and gidley islands, remember to park you boat in shark alee which is the water coarse between the two islands and on westerlies you can ride the waves off the sand bar.
if you want flat water, go to mallus island.
during cyclone season sams island will hold a 3 to 4 meter swell and with northerly winds, you can get epic wave sailing conditions there. but only if the cyclone is due north of karratha,. but for all these places you need a boat. if you like open ocean with wind swell lite house beach at point Sampson can be hard to take off but epic conditions for jumping.
and remember in sumer you need bigger sails coz the wind is so warm, in 25 to 30 knots you could still sail on a 6 or a 6.5 easily

Seems like some 3m scaly lizards have decided to hang out around Karatha / Dampier. Must have heard there is some sweet young meat on the way
