hey guys, just moved down form freo and wanting to meet local kiters and kite the sw region.
where is a good place....
youll see some crew in the corner of princess harbour near little grove, not far from the yacht club. Few poleys about too.
hey bung eye, hit me up if your keen to explore the south coast, i'm moving to live in pemberton next week, walpole and windy harbour will be my closest places so i'll be keen for weekend kiting missions this summer.
barry i've had a go in the nornalup inlet off coalmine beach, easterly wind i think it was, semiflat water, nothing special but the wind wasn't too gusty and theres plenty of space to explore. not that i've tried but i reakon walpole inlet (the little one) would be a tad too small, lots of big trees down there to block the wind.
parrys beach is pretty cool spot. can have some nice waves. and camp site looed nice too.
thanks guys,
yes parrys beach has its days, been there a few times,
have to try ocean beach
if anyone is going out for a kite call me and i will join you guys.

my number is 0438903245.
rushi the name and always keen for a kite.
Hey Rushi
Im one of the locals down here and what everyone is saying is about right. Ocean Beach is the most popular and is good when the seabreeze kicks in. The inlet is usually great flatwater however it was opened this year and its not looking so good 
. Parry's is the place to go for epic downwinders, miles of beach and swell can get quite big sometimes. Ive only realy had a look at albany but there looks like there is a few nice spots around the harbour.
See you around

Ive only realy had a look at albany but there looks like there is a few nice spots around the harbour. through summer you can head down almost everyday; this is the main swimming beach as well so you will have to walk down the beach a bit. Parrys is south facing and SE are great when kiting there anything southerly realy, however there is a bit of a drive to get there.
Not called that but there is a lighthouse there? What I called it. Went surfing out there once it's on way to parrys looked small until we got out there! South east onshore at ocean beach is it a bit of a mission getting off the beach then or do you walk around nthe curve a bit?.
This photo was taken at Lights Beach about 3 weeks ago. It is looking out from the beach after walking down the stairs on the eastern side of the carpark.
ah lights beach, yea just down the road from oceans... i have never kited there and dont plan to. Dont have the balls. The only wind kiteable would be a Westerly i think, Plus there isnt much space to set up, loads of rocks and not much beach. Leave that place to the surfers.
We had a decent SE today and oceans wasnt to bad. First kite there of the season, could easily get out the back.
Getting from the ocean to the inlet is easy enough with the channel open, but there is almost no room at all on a low tide, one small open area and a few deep channels to ride through. There was enough to do a few small jumps and there was two of us there. Ill tell you what is like at high tide when i get the chance.
Yeh ya prob right about lights beach. So I suppose it's a long walk to the surf break around the bay then? Suppose you have to paddle across it with channel open. At least thud snapper are safe. Watched tourists catching big snapper by the bucket load trapped in when there last was really disgusting actually btw. Glad you had a kite just got back from exmouth 6 days in a row. Explored The outer reefs with a new found friend had a ball. Hey will pm you when we come down we can catch up and go for a kite. Ta for the info safe sailing buddy.
Dude long drive for ya. Missing the best week though. Damn! Son has a small op wife freaking out so had to come back spewin
hello daniel,thanks for all your info,
