went to hunny for the first time last week .we had a look around first and decided it was best by the boating club .4.50 for parking for the day .there are groins along the beach so is a bit difficult launching and landing at high tide . the best time for kiting is prob around 4hrs each side of the low tide (correct me if im wrong).the water was well shallow for long way out so perfect for learning ,it was also smooth .

 

there was also a lot of kiters up at old hunstanton it might be worth a look up there if the wind is ok .

 

enjoy yr day

ok chears guys, going to get down in the morning for a lunch time session, if theres wind??? should be about right looking at tides?

Will give you a shout Abbe if we see you,,look out for a blue Nova2 or red advance skorpio, give us a wave if you see us heading in the wrong direction.
