Ill bite

Water, flat water is a good place, flat water where the wind blows, water with plenty of space, water in which you can stand up and walk is great (some clue to where you live would be good to get advice on locations)


Also im a bit worried that you believe your having your 3rd and final lesson, although you may not intend to pay for more lessons there will be many lessons learnt by yourself in time to come, some very very very painful, some very very very costly, some very very very humiliating (sorry, that's just in relation to my last session, may never happen to you)


But on the bright side, great that your hooked, all the best

I'm in Perth

Cool.

I learned at safety bay. Woodman point is a good place to go once you can go upwind. I recommend staying away from the likes of Scarborough, Trigg, city, cottesloe Leighton beaches as they can get a bit rough for a noob
;)

Edit : Best to know all the local laws and restrictions as well.
