This was going to be a golf course but was not completed, so there are lots of nice areas for top landing. South winds are very good. SSE is better if you want to try left, as getting back can be an issue. While the bowl is rated Supervised, going left or right out of it is Advanced.

No smoking on the site.

Takeoff

Launch from the top in 8-15 kts.

Landing

There is ample beach to bomb out, with a stairway up on the left. Top landing is very good, just avoid the rotor from the large pine tree, right of launch. When the winds is crossed left or right, there is rotor at the points.

Flight

This site offers flights all the way to Kilcunda and San Remo.

Hazards / Comments

Watch out for the occasional hole and star picket.

Going left there is no bottom landing in places, and you cannot climb out, because the waves come right up to the points, so you must be sure of a top landing option. Its then a long walk back...
