Heading back from London for a few weeks of sun in the Tauranga Harbour - will be staying at Omokoroa. Have a couple of questions for those that might be able to help:

- Was wondering if anyone knows if Omokoroa beach or a beach nearby is kiteable or can recommend somewhere else kiteable in the Tauranga Harbour?

- I've had a flick through the Tauranga Location guide on kiteforum - for the spots in Tauranga itself - which would be best for an intermediate rider?

Thanks heaps,
Sam.

Ferguson park in SW to NW and kulam park (think spelling is wrong) for
the northerleys. Good local crew down there who will help out
if it's not blowing it sucks
