The main problem with all of those waters is gusty wind and in case of equipment failure, or if the wind dies, you may not find a friendly landing spot and may need to be rescued.

Besides, the water there is not really all that flat (I'd call it choppy). If you're after flat water in that area go to the Murray Mouth - it has plenty of beach to launch from and good clean wind directly from the ocean.

Boggy lake? Very safe, flat water and good seabreezes.

Boggy lake,where's that exactly?..

It's at the very top of Lake Alexandrina. Very popular spot with windsurfers, so if you decide to go there on a windy weekend you won't be alone. Some kitesurfers occasionally go there too, and it does get reasonably decent seabreezes in summer. But again, I wouldn't call it flat water - it's actually quite choppy, unless the wind is offshore. Its also got one of the cleanest rigging areas on the grass close to the water. So if you want to try some lake kiting, Boggy would the best place to start.





If you decide to go there, drive in through this gate and follow the road to the rigging area:
