I flew into Albion Park in 2001 on the way past. It was so damn windy and lumpy, I landed in about 20 metres and had a heap of turbulence. Taxiing back to the hangar area I managed to do a ground-loop in my nosewheel aircraft! The local helicopter mob gave me a hangar spot which was nice and said that it's literally always extremely turbulent due to the nearby escarpment.
I stayed in a hotel for a few nights, and each morning I got up it was as windy as hell when I stuck my head out. By that time I thought I'd give it a go and head home. It was the most turbulence I'd ever expererienced till at least 10 miles out and a decent altitude. Ever since, it's been on my do not visit list. Maybe it would be ok in an easterly.
