Late September is often the start of our NE seabreeze season. Take a 10 or a 12 and do some downwinders.

September is usually a bit fickle but if the temps get warm enough we'll get some good sea breezes.

Two don'ts:

Don't kite between the blue flags

Don't forget to smile!

normal run is as long as you want !!
Majimba to sunshine or coolum to peregian if you are a bit soft and anything in between to suit your fitness level, and like Dave sez stay away from the flagged areas and you will be sweet with everyone.And obviously dont setup or launch near or upwind of other beach users etc.
