For the Sunny Coast I'd go to Robbie Lea. Very consistent and fantastic if you want to take your sailing to a higher level.

The other option at RQ is the Saturday morning "Club Windsurfing" sessions that will be starting in September again, not lessons but rather a group of progressing beginners, typically people who have completed a beginner course, all sailing together with one or two more experienced sailors to offer tips and advice plus support when needed.

No charge to members as its club members helping other club members
