Wind Days = % of days with 12–35 knot average wind speed (ideal kiting conditions). Based on 4 years of historical weather data.
Partially sheltered coastline with moderate, varied conditions
The Train is located in a protected bay on Australia's east coast, surrounded by residential areas and light industrial development. The bay opens to the northeast with a sandy, sheltered shoreline. The water body is characterized by shallow areas, visible sand banks, and extensive mooring fields indicating recreational boat traffic. This is a protected bay environment rather than open ocean exposure. The spot suits beginners due to flat water conditions and gentle environment, though wind conditions are highly unreliable. Best wind arrives from the southeast to southwest, which provides side-shore conditions parallel to the northeast-facing coastline. Average wind speeds of 5.1 knots are marginal for kitesurfing, and the 0.5% reliability indicates this is not a consistent spot. Wave heights average under 1 meter, making this suitable only for light wind and flat water conditions. Kiters should be aware of boat traffic, mooring hazards, and the need for very light wind equipment. This spot works best during rare strong wind days when typical local sea breezes fail to materialize.
