Sorry mate, thought I'd answered, apparently not...
March is still good and if you're lucky you might even score a cyclone.... 
2012 review by Diabolo :
New Cal is a great place for a holiday .
Have been 4 times now 3 times with just wife and me last time was with wife and our two young kids who both want to go back again as soon as !
I cant work out why you would go to Bali but give me New Cal anyday .
Ilse De Pin is magic and a great place to just unwind .
Next time we go will spend do a bit of sailing in Noumea .
Do they run clinics at all ??
Cheers and have a great Chrissy and New Year .
Well i've been in new cal for 2 days now
so far, i can confirm it is beautiful and very relaxing. As yet, i have not witnessed the famous sea breezes but i'm hoping very much that they appear soon. Have you been around shaun ? I've said hi to Laurence on the beach and the hire gear looked great for when the wind arrived. any advice on Mon wind activities or good places to eat would be greatly appreciated. I hope everyone else is getting their windy Christmas!
Geez Mev, should've called me, too bad for the wind, we've been sailing everydayup until wednesday (25 knts !). This arvo was alright though.
I'll be at the beach tomorrow around 12.00 (if the weather's okay) if you want to catch up
I look like this :
and I'm never far from laurent's spot (cause there's always food...)
waiting4wind is here also at the moment, he's been sailing nearly everyday !!
Thanks dartboy, looking forward to meeting you next time. I was actually brought up on Isle of pines (Indeed there are worst places )
Hi shaun.
Thanks for the message. it appears that the wind has dropped in celebration of my arrival. i'll be checking it out at 12 tomorrow. hopefully catch you there.
Don't be fooled by the wind near the shore. I was thinking the other day it looked marginal, when I spoke to one of the rental guys he said it was 20-25 (the day before yesterday, I'm losing track) out near the island.
I was well powered on a 6m and found the free race board I was using a bit too fast int he chop so jumped on a FSW/ freemove board which was just the ticket.
But yes yesterday and today has been SUP weather!
I'll post some photos if I can work it out on the IFAD!
Lets hope the next few days is on!
Thanks waiting4wind. i've only been here for the last 2 days, but the forecast looks better in the next few so i dare say i'll see you out there.
There's a storm heading our way from the solomon islands, should get here on the 31st....
Was in New Cal around 8th Nov hired a naish 80 lt with 5.3 for $30 for an hr gear had been thrashed a bit but better than my old gear. Had a great sail 12-1:30 wind was constant 20-25 knots stayed at terra beach hotel got the best deal $1400 return 3 nights with the wife. Wind got stronger as the arvo went on. Should have gone back out but hadn't sailed for a while thought I'd save it for the next day. What do you know???? Didn't happen. Back there next time though. Can't stand the French but god the women are hot. Wee wee

Mev and myself toe to toe...
Yep slimmed down! I was actually drinking beer on the balcony, watching, when all this went down.
By the time I got in my 500m walk to the WS gear the wind was a bit average so I went back to the beer!
The pastry shop downstairs is helping matters either. But I'll be in top form for some speed sailing when I get back!
Hi Moby, never trust the papers check those pics, I'm sure you'll want to come over.....

Sean, thanks heaps for the hospitality, advice and introductions to the locals.
Flew back this afternoon on to a nice NE'er at the airport, shame I didn't leave my car and gear at the airport.
Off to celebrate now, happy NY!
(I did post it in the Kite forum), just sharing some awesome footage from New Cal.
Shaun,
My thanks too for all the helpful information and the fun sailing.
Happy sailing and good winds for everyone in 2013!
Gents,
Been reading this post with a lot of interest; I moved to Brizzie from the UK about three years ago and have been looking to get back into windsurfing since going over to the dark side a few years ago. 
Was surprised that there aren't the kind of resort rental places you seem to get all over Europe in Aus but I guess its down to cost. Then I heard New Cal is only 2 hours away and it looks amazing...
So, the wife and I have just booked our flights to head out boxing day this year (big forward planning) for 10 days - basically got a year to get good again.
Would be great to know if anyone else on the forum is going out again around that time
)
so I can duct tape it and hit the beach.....
^^^I'm planning a family trip in Oct to Qld & also keen to skip over - October is generally the best time of year in Vic for WSing, what are the conditions over there at that time? Cheers in advance.
Btw - that first vid is still one of my all-time favs!
conditions all good in october (water temp, wind, sun)!!
we're just a two hours flight away from Brisbane.
Sean
I am loving your advice. Keep it up.
I'm thinking of bringing my wife and two little ones over to new cal. Is there good shopping for my wife?
Also, do you know a link to a website with wind summary month by month?
