About Windsurfing in Australia
Windsurfing combines the balance of surfing with the sail-power of sailing, using a free-standing rig on a board to harness wind and glide across the water. It is physically demanding, technically rewarding, and perfectly suited to Australia's coastal winds and warm climate.
Getting Started
Windsurfing Australia affiliated schools and clubs run beginner courses covering rigging, balance, and basic sailing technique. Starting in light winds on a large, stable board makes learning far easier. Equipment hire is available at most coastal venues.
Windsurfing in Australia
