Scarborough, City, Trigg, Brighton, Floreat Guide

Hi to all who kite (or are thinking of kiting) around Scarborough Beach, WA!

[I've copied this from the Kitesurfing / General forum to here because a lot of visitors end up on this forum and don't check the General forum (which is where most of the action is BTW) - www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/Kitesurfing/General/]

As the last of the winter winds gust out (today) and the summer seabreezes start to kick in, I know we're all looking forward to a great season ahead but also to harmonious and safe kiting in the area.

Below are the revised guidelines which WAKSA will be publishing as hard copies also. The main difference is that we can now set up and launch 50m north of the Northern City Beach groyne (= Floreat groyne) again, but no launching / landing on the grass area / car park (ie, as we did before last summer).

There should, of course, be no kiting between the two groynes.

Visitors, the groynes are the breakwaters, long fingers of large rocks jutting out from the beach, the southern one has a watch tower on it.


As new kiters come to this stretch of beach, please help sustain our piece of heaven:

1. Please print out the Guidelines and have a copy spare to give to anyone you see setting up at the beaches - if they're local, they can then pass it on to someone else too, and if they are visiting, this will inform them.

2. If you haven't joined our group already, please Private Message us on the Seabreeze system with your email address OR email us at scarboroughkiters (at) yahoo (dot) com. [We don't publish emails here as spambots will pick them up]

Our numbers carry weight in any negotiations necessary.

3. Step in and politely 'educate' anyone not following the guidelines. The few minutes you may spend coming ashore or speaking to someone is a small investment for our future.

Good winds and big smiles to all!

Awesome!i wish there was guideline for trigg point!
