just wondering if weyba will be working today? it is a 30min drive is it worth it? I've heard good things and bad things from weyba just wondering whats the go? I've ale heard lots of beginners there and you have to self launch?
G'day Cab - surprised no one has replied...
Yes it is worth it for a safe great learning spot as a beginner or say trying strapless on a SB.
As per SEQLD kite guide (check satellite view).
Yes it does get busy - but equally if you sit-out for a while people are in and out all the time.
Good time to....
Watch how others
1) get their kite out on the water - line snagging on tree roots near waters edge can be an issue.
2) drift launch if going solo.
3) land their kite unassisted.
I have had some great days there in a southerly too - you end up going out across the lake as far as you want - so way more room.
There are bizarre lulls in the wind on hotter days - likely thermic activity - possible wind shadow as the place it happens is normally consistent on a given day.
Equally you could...
go to Golden beach at Caloundra - but this is tidal.
(with a mate) go to Boreen Point - Lake Cootharaba (refer to SEQLD guide) for a way less crowded version of Lake Weyba - it can be choppy and the setup is on the water's edge.
Cheers
