Sandgate is located in Moreton Bay, Queensland, on the northeastern coast of Australia. The spot faces northeast toward the bay, with a sandy beach break and shallow water environment characterized by visible sand ripples and tidal features. The bay provides some protection from open ocean swells, resulting in small average wave heights (0.51m) and choppy water conditions typical of tidal bays with moderate fetch. Best winds are from the northwest (315°), providing side-shore conditions parallel to the coastline. The location suits beginner to early intermediate kiters seeking shallow, protected water with minimal swell. However, the spot's primary limitation is extremely low wind reliability (0.4%), making consistent sessions difficult. Light average winds (5.7 knots) suggest this spot functions best during rare strong wind events. Kiters should monitor tidal conditions closely, as the visible ripple patterns indicate significant tidal current activity that affects water state and launching/landing. Proximity to residential development means moderate boat traffic should be expected, requiring awareness of water users.
