Caloundra rivermouth, Brisbane, Queensland

Lots of beach with plenty of help at hand. A large sandy area to land and launch.
The river mouth is the perfect kite park set up. You have flat water that runs out into surf, natural sand sliders and the odd sand bar to try your luck with. The surf brakes both right and left and vairies depending on the sand but it is always smashable.
