Hey Nug. I asked the local weatherman and he is giving it the slim chance sat but nothing sun. Hope that helps.

Speaking of Kingston se are there any restrictions on kiting? Where do people kite?

The town beach isn't usually the best place. Hit the beach 5 km north of the town, at Blackford Drain, or even better, at The Granites 15 km north.

Cape Jaffa protects Kingston from the full strength of the sea breeze - the wind and waves get better the further north you go.

There's a big get together at Kingston Long Beach
over the Australia Day long weekend - kiteboarders, buggiers and land boarders. Kiters travelling from all over Oz to be there.

Get down and join in - we'd like to outnumber the Victorians on the beach!

There is a different event at Robe in Easter.

The Kingston event is over the Australia Day long weekend and is not an organised event... in fact, it gets very messy.

Mick as opposed to Robe Easter weekend which doesnt get messy?????? he he. The Robe Easter Classic is by far the loosest event ive ever been 2. If this rivals Robe then i may have to look into it!
