About This Spot
Redgate is a coastal beach break located on the southwestern edge of Australia near Margaret River region, Western Australia. The spot faces northwest toward open ocean, with a sandy beach backed by dense coastal forest and cleared agricultural land. The coastline features rocky outcrops interspersed with sand, creating a mixed terrain for entry and exit. Water conditions are characterized as rough with average waves of 2.48m. Wind reliability is notably low at 11.5%, making consistent sessions unpredictable. Best conditions occur with north to northeast winds that provide side-shore flow parallel to the beach. Water temperature averages 16.6°C, requiring thermal protection. This spot suits intermediate kiters with rock awareness and experience in variable conditions. The combination of rocky features, inconsistent winds, and rough water demands respect for local conditions and careful planning of launch and landing zones. Scout conditions thoroughly before committing to sessions.
