Mate. used to do a lot of kiting there. think most sites are being built on now. You need a 14 or bigger. It gets windy in the arvo. but not that much. If you get hired by GF then you really need a boat now to get to the off shore islands.

Kite surfing down at Durrat last Summer. Altho' this might not be available due to construction works.

Head for Riffa Golf Club, go past, hang a right at the scrapyard and head south. Try not to go into Shaikh Isa.
