I have had many an epic session at Stockton Beach in a westerly.
It works really well up there, when the tide is out plenty of room to run up and down without getting your kite wet.
Stockton at low tide works in all directions for a play on the sand best directions though are SW-SE even a W-NW you can run up and down the beach also!
for the non believers :))))
here is a short video of a W-NW at stockton beach
