Hey my partner and I have been learning to kite and are looking to go on a holiday, thinking it'd be cool to take our kites with us. We live in Newcastle NSW, can anyone recommend some spots within a few hours that are learner-friendly with shallow water? Our current pick is Wallis Lake, Forster.
Cheers!

Does anyone still kite Chittaway? Not a holiday, but was good for learning back in the day (just had to put up with the weeds).
Otherwise vote #2 for muddies at old bar.

I've been teaching my 19 year old son but he's hated the crowds and rock groynes at Kurnell. Mackie Park at Primbee (Lake Illawarra) has been great for him. The weeds are annoying but it's shallow for hundreds and hundreds of metres in all directions and the complete lack of chop means learners can focus on kite control and have less to worry about with the board. Some lessons with Ben from Unhooked Sports has also been really helpful for him. Ben is super helpful.
