Just wondering if anyone has kited either beach on a NW. Looking for some feedback and tide recommendations. Looking for some waves this weekend.

Cheers.

check the swellnet forecast mate it will be up to 8ft on the open beaches east of melb on the weekend. if you surf you would know the sand banks max out at 4/5 foot at %90 of the beaches on the MP. so if you like 6-8ft straight handers on the head head down.

Thanks mate, sounds a bit crazy to kite. Any suggestions on where to head for some waves? How about catbay?

cat bay on a howling southerly bro.but use the maui rule.. more than 7 surfers don't sail.
i would suggest sandy point.i would chek the conditions on the trigger bros web cam and assess it from there.
the hunt is half the fun mate..you can get lucky or skunked
